The High Court in Accra has instructed the Civil and Local Government Staff Association of Ghana (CLOGSAG) to terminate its ongoing strike.
CLOGSAG announced a nationwide strike effective November 7, due to the government’s delay in finalizing a new salary structure.
CLOGSAG had previously announced its intention to proceed on strike in a statement dated October 22, anticipating that the Fair Wages and Salaries Commission (FWSC) would miss the October 31 deadline to finalize the new salary structure.
This decision was likely motivated by the government’s failure to implement the proposed salary structure, despite a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) being reached one and a half years prior.
However, in a statement, issued on Monday, November 4, CLOGSAG’s Executive Secretary, Isaac Bampoe Addo, now considers the January 1, 2025 implementation date unrealistic.
But the National Labour Commission (NLC) has obtained an injunction against the strike.
