The @AuGDJa has found that the JUTC has racked up $1.15 billion in unapproved staff while exceeding the overtime budget by $728.6 million. Then there is the 'Tree of Casualty' with governance gaps at its root.
#JUTCreport: No evidence that the positions for nine of 21 senior managers sampled were advertised; and no evidence that eight senior managers were interviewed in accordance with guidelines.
#JUTCreport: despite the advertisement for the position of a Security Manager in December 2018 and interviews conducted with four candidates, the JUTC engaged another officer who was not a part of the official recruitment process, on a one-year
contract.
#JUTCreport: Two workers were assigned to higher positions
shortly after employment, which resulted in a 64% and a 583% increase in their respective salaries. One was promoted within a year despite an unsatisfactory
appraisal, the other without providing evidence of qualification
Despite requests, the JUTC did not provide a justification for the employment of a general manager and an operations manager in its corporate office at salaries of $6.4M and $4.3M, respectively, to unapproved positions. Positions were not subject to competitive recruitment.
#JUTCreport: Board breached gov't's motor vehicle guidelines when, without the approval of the @MOFJamaica, it authorised car rental payments of US$2,400 monthly effective May 20, 2016 for a car used by the acting managing director. This resulted in charges of $1.2M for 114 days.
Between March 2018 and May 2019, 62 workers granted voluntary separation and paid total of $52M in severance
packages without meeting requisite criteria. The entity has since replaced 55 of 62 established positions with officers who were confirmed without post-numbers #JUTCreport
The @jutcltd failed in all four areas of operations management reviewed by the @AuGDJa in the #JUTCreport.
The @jutcltd did not meet any of the criteria for effective maintenance reviewed by the @AuGDJa in the #JUTCreport
#JUTCreport: The state-owned bus company failed to satisfy any of the five criteria for effective procurement and inventory management.
Then there is this: There was no evidence that several JUTC managers met the minimum required qualification. For example, the only qualification on file for the managing director, was a high school diploma. #JUTCreport
