The Head of Civil Service of the Federation, Mrs Winifred Oyo-Ita has set May 28 as deadline for all civil servants to update their records on the Integrated ​ Personnel and Payroll Information System (IPPIS).

Oyo-Ita announced the deadline at the Service Wide Sensitisation Workshop on 2017-2020 Federal Civil Service Strategy and Implementation Plan (FCSSIP) for Directorate Level officers on Wednesday in Abuja.

According to her, the update is a key requirement for the implementation of Human Resource module of IPPIS, which is one of the eight priority areas of the 2017-2020 strategic plans.

“In spite of several circulars and advertisements in the print, radio and Television requesting employees to update their records online, some employees are yet to update their IPPIS records via the on-line Portal.

“The on-line records update is a key requirement for the implementation of the HR Module of IPPIS and must be completed by every employee of the Federal Government to maintain their records on the IPPIS platform.

“I wish to inform you that the portal will close officially Wednesday May 23, 2018 but will be opened for corrections until Monday, 28 May, 2018 and those that are yet to update their records are advised to do so not later than date,” she said.

The strategic plan was inaugurated in February 2017 by Oyo-Ita to reposition the Nigerian Federal Public Service for improved service delivery.
