The Divisional Executive Council (DEC) of the National Commission for Civic Education (NCCE), under the Public Services Workers’ Union of TUC (Ghana), has announced an indefinite strike beginning on Wednesday, September 18. This action is a response to the Fair Wages and Salaries Commission’s (FWSC) failure to resume negotiations following a seven-day ultimatum issued by the union after their last meeting.
According to Rebecca Colecraft, the Divisional Chairperson, the union had submitted proposals in May 2023 for discussions on allowances for NCCE staff. Despite multiple reminders, the FWSC did not respond until July 23, 2024. The union has expressed frustration over the delays, stating that the FWSC’s inaction has worsened the challenges faced by its members.
