Four Labour Unions in public universities have postponed their intended strike over conditions of service.

The unions are the University Teachers Association of Ghana (UTAG),  the Senior Staff Association of Universities of Ghana (SSA-UoG), the Teachers & Educational Workers Union (TEWU), and the Ghana Association of University Administrators (GAUA).

This comes after the Unions responded to an invitation to a meeting with the National Labour Commission(NLC) on Wednesday, October 12, 2022.

According to a statement issued by the group on Thursday, October, 13, “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.”

It continued that the “parties are to report back to the Commission on Wednesday, 19th October 2022 at 3 pm.

“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 statement added.

The Unions, however, warned that “should the meetings fail to yield the intended result, Leadership will, accordingly, communicate the next date for the strike action.”

The unions declared a strike effective Thursday, October 13, 2022, over what they described as a “blatant unilateral variation of service in the face of hostile economic conditions.”
