Although the Teachers Service Commission was established in 1967, its history dates back to the 1950s when teachers led by retired President Daniel T Moi vigorously fought for the formation of one teacher body. Following the formation of the first teachers union in Kenya - the Kenya National Union of Teachers (KNUT) in 1957 there was sustained agitation for the creation of an umbrella body to manage the affairs of all teachers. At the time, teachers were employed by either; missionaries, local authorities or the Central Government which led to a great disparity in remuneration and other terms and conditions of service. In 1964, The Kenya Education Commission Report (The Ominde Report) strongly supported the need for a competent, respected and contented teaching force. As a result of these factors, the Teachers Service Commission was formed in July 1967 through an Act of Parliament to give teachers one employer and uniform terms and conditions of service. It was charged with the mandate of registering, employing, promoting, disciplining and paying teachers.ADVERT NO. 75/2026 Duties and responsibilities Duties and responsibilities at this level will entail: - Promoting the risk awareness culture at the Commission; Identifying risks; Inducting and guiding newly recruited/ deployed employees to the Risk Management Division; Formulating, interpreting and ensuring implementation of risk management policies, strategies and work plans; Facilitating the development of a risk based strategic plan within the approved risk appetite; Reviewing and approving the Division’s budget and procurement plan; Reviewing and approving the Divisions annual work plan; Overseeing the implementation of the Division’s annual work plan; Reviewing and evaluation on Business Continuity Management; Coordinating awareness campaigns to embed BCM culture in the Commission; Reviewing Business Impact Analysis (BIA) reports; Coordinating Business Impact Analysis (BIA) and threat analysis; Reviewing risk management manual for approval by management; Advising management on the Commission’s risk exposures; and Supervising and guiding employees in the Division for optimum performance.
