The National Labour Commission is scheduled to meet the executives of Colleges of Education Non-Teaching Staff Association of Ghana (CENTSAG) today over their strike.
The group began an indefinite strike on Monday over demands for better conditions of service.
CENTSAG members have expressed their dissatisfaction over government’s disregard for their concerns.
Their issues include wrong placement of first-degree holders, non-payment of migration arrears, exclusion of payment of generic allowances, partial payment of office holding allowances, and non-payment of Interim Market Premium Arrears.
A statement jointly signed by Mr. Frederick Forkuo Yeboah, the National President of CENTSAG, and Mr. Samuel Opoku, National Secretary, on April 4, served notice to embark on an indefinite strike starting April 11 to press home their demands for better conditions of service.
The statement said the decision to embark on strike has been necessitated by the continuous disregard for the issues raised affecting the welfare of our members and we are, by this release, informing all our members with exception of the security class to stay away from the colleges until otherwise instructed,”.
Meanwhile, the Executive secretary of the national labour commission, Ofosu Asamoah says the commission is aware of the demands of CENTSAG and the commission had been waiting to see that the matter is resolved.
