TEWU joins SSAUoG to embark on indefinite industrial action

The indefinite industrial action will start on Friday, September 20, 2024.

The industrial action was due to non-implementation on the part of the Controller and Accountant General’s Department (CAGD) to implement the negotiated and approved Vehicle Maintenance and Off-Campus allowances to the rank and file.

TEWU said even though an approval letter for implementation of such was issued by the Ministry of Finance to CAGD on August 2, 2024, no action had been taken.

This was in a statement jointly signed by Madam Salamatu Mahamah Braimah, National Chairperson Secretary, and Mr Charles Kofi Osei, Deputy General Secretary, issued to the Ghana News Agency in Accra.

The statement expressed the unfulfilled promise by the government to recalculate and pay members Tier Two interest accrued from the delayed payment of the Tier Two deductions to its scheme from January 2010-2016.
