The Volta River Authority has cautioned Ghanaians against the activities of fraudulent people who are recruiting people in the name of the authority.

In a statement, the authority explained that a person posing as the Head of Laboratory Unit of the VRA hospital has been issuing fake letters to potential employees.

“It has come to the attention of the management of VRA that an unscrupulous person posing as the Head of Laboratory Unit at the VRA Hospital at Akosombo is issuing fake letters to unsuspecting potential employment seekers, purporting to be appointing them into roles at the VRA Hospitals,” the statement from the authority read in part.

It further warned that it has not asked any person or group of persons to represent the authority in any such manner.

Thus, job seekers who are aiming to work with the authority should forward all concerns via approved means.

The statement read; “The VRA has a recruitment process and at no stage in the process is the payment of any sort required from the candidate. We, therefore, caution the public to be wary of information from such fraudulent persons and further advise that under no circumstance should they part with money for appointment into VRA because that is not part of our recruitment process. When in doubt, kindly contact us at corpcomm@vra.com for verification.”

“VRA wishes to assure all that the Authority is an equal opportunity employer committed to a fair recruitment process. Job seekers and the general public must, therefore, disregard the activities of such fraudulent persons at any point in time,” the statement added.
