The National Labour Commission (NLC) on Monday directed workers of the Ghana Railways Company to immediately call off their strike action and return to work unconditionally.
The management of the company should also immediately pay all the outstanding salaries due to the workers.
These were the outcome of separate meetings held by the Commission and the
Management of the company and the workers to resolve the impasse that had resulted
in the strike action by the workers.
The workers, who were on strike to back their demands for the payment of
outstanding salaries were also calling for a 150 per cent salary adjustment and the removal of their management.
The NLC, in a statement signed by Mr. Kwasi Danso Acheampong, Deputy Chairperson
said members of the Railway Workers Union should constitute the appropriate leadership
in accordance with their own constitution to prepare themselves to negotiate and also open negotiations with their management.
The statement however dismissed the workers request for the removal of the management, saying the appointment, promotion and removal of management personnel were the preserve of the employer and/or the owner and therefore the issue had been referred to the sector Minister.
