    Jos Water Services Corporation (JWSC), formerly known as the Plateau State Water Board, was established by the Plateau State Water Sector Law of 2019 to provide safe, adequate, and affordable water services to the residents of the Greater Jos Area. The corporation is committed to adopting global best practices in its operations, ensuring sustainable and efficient water supply and sanitation services across the region.<\/p>\n

    Originally founded in 1975<\/strong>, the corporation has grown in response to the increasing demand for potable water in Jos and its surrounding areas. Over the years, JWSC has expanded its operations and improved its infrastructure to meet the needs of a rapidly growing population. The corporation’s mission is to deliver exceptional water and sewerage services to the Greater Jos Area<\/strong> through innovation and sustainability. JWSC is dedicated to ensuring universal access to clean water while maintaining environmental integrity and improving community well-being through world-class infrastructure and service delivery.<\/p>\n

    JWSC envisions becoming Africa\u2019s premier water utility, setting new benchmarks for service excellence and innovation in water management. Its goal is to provide reliable access to clean, safe water to every household while employing sustainable practices and cutting-edge technologies. The corporation\u2019s core values are centered around Commitment, Accountability, Professionalism, Sustainability, Integrity, and Teamwork (CAPSIT), guiding every decision and action taken in service to the community. These principles foster a culture of excellence and responsibility, ensuring that JWSC remains a leader in water service delivery and infrastructure development.<\/p>\n

    As part of its responsibilities in the SURWASH program, Jos Water Services Corporation (JWSC) focuses on the rehabilitation of existing water treatment plants (WTPs) and the expansion of water supply infrastructure to meet the growing demand for safe and reliable water in the Greater Jos Area. This includes modernizing and upgrading current WTPs, pipelines, and reservoirs to enhance the capacity and efficiency of the water supply system. To ensure the safety and quality of the water provided, JWSC regularly monitors water quality, conducting tests at water treatment plants to guarantee that the water meets safety standards and is fit for consumption.<\/p>\n

    JWSC also plays a key role in engaging with urban communities to raise awareness about the importance of water conservation and the efficient use of water resources. The corporation emphasizes the need for maintaining clean water sources to support public health and promote sustainable water practices within the community. In line with its commitment to sustainability, JWSC adopts innovative practices, such as the integration of renewable energy sources, water conservation programs, and modern technologies to improve the efficiency and reliability of water distribution systems.<\/p>\n

    Furthermore, JWSC is responsible for continuously monitoring the performance of its water supply systems, ensuring they meet the required service delivery standards. The corporation regularly reports on its progress and challenges to key stakeholders, including the SURWASH<\/strong> coordination teams and Plateau State government, ensuring transparency and accountability in its operations.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
