The Center for National Documents and Records Agency (CNDRA), commonly known as the National Archives, has officially broken ground for the construction of a new employees’ cafeteria at its 12th Street compound.
The initiative is being spearheaded by the Employees Movement for Transparency, Advocacy and Development (CEMTAD), a political group participating in the agency’s upcoming workers’ elections scheduled for December.
The cafeteria project is a story building that will host other offices for employees and the Agency in general.According to organizers, the project carries the theme “Let Us Build Together Our Own” and is estimated to cost approximately $17,000 USD.
Speaking at the groundbreaking ceremony, Ebenezer Borbor, chairperson of the organizing committee and a presidential candidate in the workers’ elections said the cafeteria project was prompted by ongoing challenges employees face in accessing breakfast and lunch during the workday.
He emphasized that the establishment of a modern cafeteria would significantly improve staff welfare.
Mr. Borbor called on employees to support the initiative and take full ownership of the project as it progressed.
