Two government workers have been fired for allegedly ripping off the Saskatchewan Liquor and Gaming Authority for nearly $100,000.

The news comes in the latest reporting of losses of public money by the government.

It says an SLGA worker submitted time cards worth about $35,000 for time that wasn't actually worked between February 2011 and July of this year.

Another employee at SLGA is alleged to have fraudulently obtained grant money from the authority worth approximately $57,000 between July of 2012 and August of this year.

Both employees have been fired and information turned over to police.

The government says it is working to recover the money from both former employees.

The provincial government makes regular, quarterly disclosures on losses of public money.

It's something it committed to do years ago, in the wake of some high-profile thefts which had not been made public.
