OPM’s permanent secretary resigns
KINGSTON, Jamaica – Onika Miller, the permanent secretary in the Office of the Prime Minister (OPM), has resigned from the post.
Her resignation will take effect on October 1, 2015.
In a statement today, the Office of the Services Commissions (OSC) confirmed that Miller has resigned from the Public Service of Jamaica, “to avail herself of an opportunity in the private sector”.
The OSC insisted that, contrary to a media report, at no time during Miller’s 19 years of service has there been any disciplinary or grievance matter for the consideration of the OSC pertaining to her work or conduct.
The Commission said Miller has given 19 years of “committed and exemplary service to the public service, with an unblemished record of contribution” to several ministries and agencies, including the OPM, Cabinet Office, Ministry of Local Government and Community Development, and Jamaica Social Investment Fund.
In the meantime, the OSC is completing the process of appointing a new permanent secretary for the Office of the Prime Minister.
