The National Identification Authority (NIA) Division of the Public Services Workers’ Union of TUC (Ghana) has issued a notice to its management of its intention to embark on an industrial action on March 25.
According to the Union, the management of NIA has failed to implement the proposed and submitted allowances to the Fair Wages and Salaries Commission.
This has resulted in its inability to pay all allowances due them from July 2008 to February 2024.
The notification was contained in a letter to the Executive Secretary of the NIA signed by Divisional Chairman, Francis Bangfudeme Nyuzaghl and the Divisional Secretary, Adu Kyeremeh Kwabena on March 4.
“The proposed and submitted allowances to the Fair Wages and Salaries Commission as indicated by the Executive Secretary during his regional working visit are not implemented to reflect on our March 2024 pay slip.
"We hereby bring to the attention of Management, that, we shall proceed on an indefinite strike on Monday, 25th March, 2024 if:
“All allowances due us with arrears up to February 2024, from the dates of appointment, as contained in the existing conditions of service pursuant to sections 2.3.2, 2.3.3, 9.4.5iv, & 9.4.10, do not reflect on our March 2024 payslip.
“The Scheme of Service (SOS) is not approved and implemented by March 25, 2024. The Draft Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) of the Unions are not negotiated by March 25, 2024,” portions of the notice read.
The union stressed that if the management did not meet their demands before or on March 25, it would embark on the industrial action.
“Failure to meet these requests on or before the stated date would be met with an industrial strike action. All union members nationwide: at the Head Office, Regional Offices, Premium Centers, and District Offices will lay down our tools until our concerns are addressed fully,” the union added.
