The Human Resources Management Division of the Liberia Revenue Authority has intensified staff training on the use of the Authority’s automated Loan Purchase Agreement (LPA) platform known as the “Thomas Doe-Nah LPA Scheme.”
Named in honor of the late LRA Commissioner General Thomas Doe-Nah, who initiated the program, the scheme is designed to enable employees to purchase goods and services from approved vendors through monthly salary deductions over an agreed period.
The training initiative, which will be extended to staff across LRA Tax Business and Customs Business Offices nationwide, is aimed at ensuring effective understanding and utilization of the new digital platform as the LPA program transitions from a manual processing system to a more efficient digital process.
The platform features several user-friendly tools, including invoice uploads, application editing options, notifications, and improved application tracking capabilities, all intended to enhance accessibility, transparency, accountability, and operational efficiency within the LPA process.
Speaking during the start of the training, Assistant Commissioner for the Human Resources Division, Madam Chupee W.G. Howe, emphasized that the LPA platform is designed to address staff operational needs and encouraged employees to actively engage and provide constructive recommendations for future improvements to the platform.
Meanwhile, Welfare and Compliance Supervisor Madam Adelaide M. Payegar disclosed that additional partner institutions will soon be integrated into the LPA platform as part of efforts to expand employee benefits and improve access to services. She also noted that the monthly repayment deduction under the scheme remains at 33.33 percent of an employee’s net salary to ensure the sustainability of the program.
The initiative reflects the LRA’s continued commitment to improving staff welfare through innovative solutions while advancing digital transformation, transparency, operational efficiency, and effective public sector service delivery.
