CLOGSAG calls off strike
Following a Memorandum of Understanding between the government and the Civil and Local Government Staff Association, Ghana, (CLOGSAG), the National Executive Council (NEC) of CLOGSAG has asked all its members to organize themselves and resume work on Monday, January 24.
CLOGSAG on Thursday, January 20, 2022, said in a statement that “The National Executive Council (NEC) of Civil and Local Government Staff Association, Ghana (CLOGSAG) at its meeting held on Thursday 20th January 2022 had reviewed the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between the Government and CLOGSAG”.
The statement which was signed by Isaac Bampoe Addo, Executive Secretary of the union said “The National Executive Council (NEC) of CLOGSAG has therefore decided to call off the strike. All members should organise themselves and resume work on Monday, January 24.”
Meanwhile, the Fair Wages and Salaries Commission (FWSC) had earlier said in a statement on Thursday, January 20, 2022, that the Government has granted aspects of the demands by the Civil and Local Government Service Association Ghana (CLOGSAG) which resulted in their strike action.
“Yesterday government reached an agreement with the leadership of the Civil and Local Government Service Association Ghana (CLOGSAG) which culminated in the signing of an MoU.
The agreement granted some aspects of the demands concerning their conditions of service and others being worked in progress”, the statement added.
CLOGSAG started their strike today Thursday, January 20, 2022, across the country to demand better conditions of Service.
Despite repeated warnings, the Association claims that over a year after their proposed salary structure was delivered to the Finance Ministry for consideration, they have yet to communicate with them.
