National Construction Authority Statement On False Employment Charges

It has come to the attention of The National Construction Authority (NCA) that persons masquerading as officers of the Authority have been obtaining money by false pretences from members of the public under the guise of securing employment.

The Authority would like to remind all members of the public of the following:

1. All recruitment drives are a matter of public record, and all available positions are advertised in the local dailies, the Authority's website (www.nca.go.ke) as well as on official social media communication channels.

2. Recruitment is done competitively as per the guidelines set by the Public Service Commission. The National Construction Authority is an Equal Opportunity Employer (EOE) committed to diversity and gender equality.

3. The Authority does not charge for recruitment and any request for payment during this process is both illegal and unethical. Any such requests should be reported to the Authority via its official communication lines, to the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission, the Office of the Ombudsman, and to the nearest National Police Service Station.

4. Further, any institution or facility that offers conferencing services to any person for purposes of conducting interviews on behalf of the Authority is obligated to confirm the authenticity of the reservations with the Authority through the official communication channels. This is to ensure that they do not become accomplices to any illegal activity.

Members of the public are advised to always verify all communication coming from the Authority via the official communication channels. Any person(s) found liable for masquerading as a public officer and obtaining funds under false pretences will be arrested and prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
