The Colleges of Education Teachers Association of Ghana (CETAG) has declared an indefinite strike effective Friday, June 14, 2024.
In a statement released on Friday, June 14, the association said the strike action is a result of the government’s delay in implementing the National Labour Commission’s (NLC) Arbitral Award Orders and negotiated service conditions, and failure to meet other demands.
CETAG is therefore calling on the government to meet their demands, including paying one month’s salary to each member for additional duties performed in 2022 and applying agreed rates of allowances payable to public universities to deserving CETAG members.
The statement signed by the national president has directed members to withdraw teaching and related services indefinitely until their grievances are resolved.
“CETAG wishes to call on every member to immediately comply with this declaration by withdrawing teaching and related services indefinitely across all 46 public colleges of education until all the orders arising from the Compulsory Arbitration Awards and related concerns are fully implemented by way of payments to our members and implementations thereof.”
