The Civil and Local Government Staff Association, Ghana (CLOGSAG), has declared a nationwide strike effective, Thursday, November 7, 2024.

This follows a notice served on October 23, 2024, over what CLOGSAG described as the prolonged delay in finalizing a salary structure for staff and implemented from January 1, 2025.

The declaration according to the Association is in line with the expiration of an October 31 deadline for the government to meet their demands.

 In a statement, CLOGSAG said despite multiple meetings since then, the government has yet to make a concrete offer.

They have therefore decided not to have anything to do with the Fair Wages and the Salaries Commission (FWSC) because it has acted in bad faith.

“As a result of the delay in the completion of salary structure and other conditions of service of CLOGSAG members have no other option than to stay at home from November 7, 2024,” portions of the statement read.
