Tripartite Comt. adjourns without agreement on min. wage

The Tripartite Committee on Monday adjourned sitting without agreement over a new minimum wage.

The closed-door meeting attended by government officials, the Ghana Employers’ Association and the Trades Union Congress (TUC) would reconvene on Monday April 30.

The meeting was adjourned from last week because the labour movement and the government could not agree on an acceptable minimum wage. The TUC is demanding 6,000 cedis while the government offered 5,000 cedis.

The minister of Manpower Development and Employment, Mrs Cecilia Bannerman said all parties would reconsider their positions during the recess and expressed the hope that when they reconvene again next week, they would reach an agreement.
