The Civil and Local Government Staff Association, Ghana (CLOGSAG) has announced it will resume its nationwide strike if the government does not resolve concerns over its salary structure and conditions of service within 14 days.
The union suspended its nearly three-week industrial action on Tuesday, March 17, after government officials assured leadership that the issues raised would be reviewed.
Speaking on Joy FM’s Midday News, CLOGSAG’s Public Relations Officer, Edmund Acquaye, said the decision followed an assessment by the union’s leadership, which directed members to return to work.
“All members have been asked to resume duties on Tuesday, March 24, while the government works to address our concerns regarding salary structure and conditions of service,” he explained.
Acquaye noted that the union’s decision reflects a commitment to maintaining a healthy employer-employee relationship built on trust and good faith.
The association is also expected to engage the National Labour Commission as part of ongoing efforts to resolve the impasse.
However, CLOGSAG cautioned that it will not hesitate to take further action if the government’s review does not adequately address its concerns.
“After the 14 days, we will assess the situation, and if our issues remain unresolved, we will decide our next line of action,” Acquaye added.
CLOGSAG’s strike, which lasted nearly three weeks, disrupted services across several public sector institutions before its suspension.
