The Civil and Local Government Staff Association, Ghana (CLOGSAG), has called off its industrial action and directed members to resume work by Monday, 16th May, 2022.
At a meeting held on Tuesday, 12th May 2022, the National Executive Council (NEC) of CLOGSAG said the decision to call off the strike was after an agreement had been reached with the Ministry of Finance.
A statement issued and signed by the Executive Secretary of CLOGSAG, Isaac Bampoe Addo said, “the rationale to step down the industrial action was based on the fact that demand for the Ministry of Finance to direct the Controller and Accountant General to effect payment of agreed allowance has been met on 11th May 2022”.
CLOGSAG commended the resilience and commitment of its members during the striking period.
“…it portrays the sordid conditions under which our members have endured all these years. This brings home the fact that the conditions of service being enjoyed now have not been achieved on a silver platter” the statement said.
