FAQs :
1. I have started work with a user agency prior to postings/deployment and intend to stay there for my national service. Is this allowed?
You are engage in an offense called “self-posting”. NSP who posts himself or herself to a user agency other than the one to which s/he was officially posted, either with or without connivance of the officials of the user agency will not be recognized as having done national service, and will be made to face the appropriate sanctions.

2. What happens if I left my duty post prior to completing my national service?
Any NSP that takes up posting but does not complete the full period, without proper authorization from the Board, is classified as a deserter and appropriate sanctions shall be applied against him/her.

Three months after desertion, the service person shall be declared an evader. Any national service rendered before desertion will be nullified and personnel on reporting back to the National Service Secretariat shall be made to start service afresh.

3. Can I decide not to take up my posting even though I registered and was been duly deployed?
Any Ghanaian eligible for national service who is deployed but is not available or does not report at his/her service post without prior permission, within a period of three months after close of postings, and without proper authorization, is considered an committed an evasion for which the appropriate section of the NSS Act shall be evoked.

4. Can a person be posted to a private company to do National Service?
Typically, private companies write to NSS requesting for NSPs. Such letters are expected to reach the NSS national secretariat before the end of April in any year.

NSP deployed on the basis of such requests are allowed to undertake their national service assignments in the private sector.

NSS does not encourage private companies to request for specific NSP, however, a general idea of qualification and background of personnel they need is necessary.

5. How do I obtain more information about the activities of NSS?
NSS organizes orientations on several campuses across the country every year prior to deployment.

The orientation events often serve opportunities to learn more about the NSS, to interact with management, questions or seek clarifications, and get to hear about the experience of others.

Please feel free to visit the NSS website which is active and updated regularly with all the relevant information. NSS is also active on facebook, Twitter ([AT] nssghana) and other social media platforms.

6. How do I prove that I have done my National Service when I have completed it?
Once you completed your national service, a certificate will be issued to you specifying the details of your service to assure your prospective employers that you have successfully completed the national service and satisfied a major legal requirement for an unimpeded entry into the labour market.

Where the certificate is not ready, the NSS secretariat will give you attestation letters in lieu of the certificate.
