Dr Arc David Nyame-Tawiah,Deputy Managing Director in Charge of Operations at DBS Company Limited speaking after the court hearing on Thursday
The Deputy Managing Director in Charge of Operations at DBS Company Limited, manufacturers of colourlink roofing sheets has urged Ghanaian workers to respect rules and regulations governing conduct at their work places.
Speaking to the Ghanaian Observer Newspaper in Kumasi on Thursday moments after appearing in court to observe proceedings in a case where a former employee of DBS was standing trial for forgery, Dr Arc David Nyame-Tawiah said it is important that workers abide by regulations at the place of work.
Mr Tawiah noted that it is not right to seek to steal, exploit or connive with others to milk the very company one works with.
This attitude, he stressed has often times affected either the company which was being exploited or the person who was caught to be exploiting the company.
“We must be sincere with our employers and not seek to dabble in acts that would sabotage the very company we work with or to steal from same”, the DMD posited
CHALLENGES AT DBS:
Speaking about challenges at his outfit, the Deputy MD said all has been smooth until recently where some agents of DBS decided to act funny.
Two of these agents, he mentioned were currently before the courts where one was pronounced guilty for forgery after he was arrested.
Some agents, Mr Tawiah noted having had the opportunity to know that the colourlink roofing sheets presents a 20 year warranty for customers decide to shortchanged prospective buyers with same.
He noted that some agents buy low class roofing sheets but fake the 20 year warranty of DBS just to outsmart their gullible clients who may appear to love the colourlink roofing sheets.
“Since DBS is the only company that offers a 20 year warranty for its colourlink roofing sheets it makes it attractive to customers and hence the decision by some miscreants parading as employees or agents to forge receipts and invoices to dupe unsuspecting people”, Dr Tawiah noted.
COURT RULING:
Earlier on in the day, Mrs Patricia Amponsah, Judge at Circuit Court 2 handed over a year’s sentence to one Jonas Addai, a 27 year former employee of DBS.
The accused had pleaded guilty to the offence of forgery and had sought to plead with the court to give him a second chance to life.
His attorney argued for a leaner term for him and succeeded in getting a year term since the Judge had noted that forgery was gaining currency in the country.
She said the issue demanded a stiffer punishment to serve as deterrent to others who may want to thread that path.
