Four unions of the public universities of Ghana have suspended the intended strike after meeting with the National Labor Commission (NLC).

The unions are; the University Teachers Association of Ghana (UTAG), Tertiary Education Workers Union (TEWU), Senior Staff Association of Universities of Ghana (SSA-UoG), and the Ghana Association of University Administration (GAUA).

These unions in question have threatened to undertake an indefinite strike if government fails to resolve issues regarding their conditions of service starting from Thursday, October 13, 2022. 

After the meeting with the NLC, the four unions have postponed their intended strike.

“After the deliberations, the Commission directed that the Employer should hold meetings with the four (4) Labour Unions on Friday, 14th October 2022, and Monday, 17th October 2022 to “discuss terms of payment and other related matters”.

The parties have also been instructed to report back to the NLC on Wednesday, October 19, 2022.

“As a result of this development, we write to communicate that the intended strike action of all Labour Unions in the public universities in Ghana, which was to commence today, 13th October 2022 has been postponed for the meetings with the Employer to take place,” the unions said in a statement.

They further stated that, if the meetings yield no results, the intended strike will come off as planned.
