Employees of the Botswana Institute for Development Policy Analysis (BIDPA) are at loggerheads with their bosses following disagreement over the revised terms and conditions of employment they allege have collapsed the organisation’s governance. 

The workers disclosed their grievances in a letter they wrote to the Board chairperson. Through the letter, they further disclosed to have also raised similar complaints to the Permanent Secretary (PS) in the Ministry of Finance and Economic Development and also requested his immediate intervention to restore corporate governance at the institute.

Subsequently, they explained they also wrote to the Executive Director (ED) of BIDPA, Dr Tebogo Seleka on May 27th requesting the suspension of the implementation of the Revised BIDPA Terms and Conditions of Employment 2020 due to the anomalies that they established.
