The Association highlighted that 2023 witnessed numerous instances of misconduct, resulting in disciplinary actions against offenders, emphasising that some severe misconducts led to dire disciplinary measures against those found guilty.
This was contained in a press statement signed and issued by the National President of JUSAG, Samuel Afotey Otu, on Sunday, December 31.
The statement, delivering a New Year message, urged JUSAG staff to uphold to the code of conduct.
“Your job security is of utmost importance to us. Therefore, always be measured in your dealings with court users. Remember to exhibit a high level of integrity and professionalism at all times in the New Year and beyond.”
