The Lagos State Government has, Wednesday, begun moves to ensure adequate manpower in all 27 state-owned health facilities with the recruitment of 760 health workers including 400 doctors.
The recruitment, which begins from 12pm on Wednesday, July 15 until Wednesday, August 5 this year 12pm, will accept applications via Jobs.lagosstate.gov.ng.
This is the government’s unwavering efforts to close the vacant positions in the 27 general hospitals in the state.
According to the Governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu, the approval was given for the Health Service Commission to employ over 760 health workers including 400 doctors.
“The exercise has been phased in batches to ensure compliance with coronavirus safety measures,” the governor noted.
Meanwhile, the Lagos Service Commission called on interested applicants to apply via its website, Jobs.lagosstate.gov.ng.
Vacant positions to apply for are: Medical Consultants, Medical and Dental Officers, Pharmacists, Nursing Officers, Pharmacy Technicians, Dental Therapists, and Dental Technicians.
The statement read in part, “The recruitment portal will only be accessible for three weeks from 12pm on Wednesday, July 15 this year to 12om on Wednesday, August 5 this year.”
The commission, however, warned prospective applicants that submission of forms in its office would not be entertained.
