In a major boost to staff welfare, the National Port Authority (NPA) has reactivated its employees’ medical insurance scheme, which had been inactive since 2021. The announcement was made following a high-level Senior Management Team (SMT) meeting convened this week by the Authority’s Managing Director, Hon. Sekou Dukuly.
The move is part of a broader effort by NPA leadership to improve staff wellbeing and reinforce operational efficiency. According to management, the restoration of medical coverage is a key component in enhancing morale and productivity among employees.
“This is a critical step in our ongoing effort to create a supportive and performance-driven workplace,” said MD Dukuly during the meeting. “Employee wellbeing is central to the growth and sustainability of the NPA.”
The meeting also served as a platform for a comprehensive performance review across the Authority’s core departments, including administration, operations, and security. The review stressed the importance of greater efficiency, improved accountability, and strengthened interdepartmental collaboration.
In a related development, management reported significant progress in the Authority’s compliance with statutory obligations. The NPA is now fully up to date with its remittances to both the Liberia Revenue Authority (LRA) and the National Social Security and Welfare Corporation (NASSCORP). This marks a notable improvement in financial governance and institutional transparency.
The actions taken by the current leadership reflect a renewed commitment to responsible administration and a people-centered management style aimed at repositioning the NPA as a model public institution.
