Speed up work on Single Spine- TUC boss
Accra, Oct. 1, Ghanadot/GNA - The
Secretary-General of the Trades Union Congress (TUC), Mr
Kofi Asamoah, on Monday, appealed to stakeholders to speed
up work on the long awaited single spine pay structure, to
ensure that its implementation date of January 1, 2010,
takes off as planned.
Addressing workers within the Accra Area District Council of
Labour, Mr Asamoah said there was the need to prevent
anything that would cause a postponement so “I hope
stakeholders would play their part well so that the single
spine takes off as planned by government”
He said some of the challenges facing workers borders on low
income and job insecurity, and advised them to improve upon
their knowledge for a better life.
Mr Asamoah also urged workers to rededicate themselves to
the cause of the Union and to
attend meetings regularly to be abreast with developments
within TUC.
He said by doing so they would be able to deliberate on
important issues such as how to improve their working
conditions through the Collective Bargaining Agreement.
