The National Executive Committee of the Civil and Local Government Staff Association has disassociated itself from the memorandum of understanding signed between the Fair Wages and Salaries Commission and organized labour associations.In a communiqué issued by the National Executive Committee after its annual review meeting held over the weekend, the association noted with dismay that the Ministry of Finance and Economic Planning and the Ministry of Employment and Social Welfare were not party to the MOU signed between the Fair Wages and Salaries Commission and organized labor as directed by the government white paper.The Civil and Local Government Staff Association says it is displeased by actions and inactions of the Fair Wages and Salaries Commission which it considers detrimental to the interest and aspirations of the members.It has therefore in the communiqué urged the commission to implement the directives of the government white paper since anything short of that can lead to a major industrial unrest in the country.In an interview with Joy News' Western Regional correspondent Kwaku Owusu Peprah, the Acting Executive Secretary of the association, Mr James Ekow Amissah, questioned whether government has the financial capacity to back the single spine.“For government to buy time they will just throw something out to the workers... they are politicians. Ask yourself why government wants to implement the SSS in phases for 5 years? We may go on board and midway the government will run out of money to sustain it. These are the issues we want other labor union leaders to think about,” he said.He also cautioned the fair wages commission to live up to expectation saying the commission should stop inciting labor unions against one anotherMr Amissah further noted that CLOGSA has not merged with any other association or labour union and does not intend to take the members of the local government union.He said the change of name is only intended to protect civil servants who will be transferred to work at the ministry of local government.Story by Kwaku Owusu Peprah/Myjoyonline.com/Ghana
