TUSAAG declares nationwide strike effective September 27

The Technical University Senior Administrators Association of Ghana (TUSAAG) has announced a nationwide strike on September 27, 2024.

This industrial action arises from the government’s inability to fulfill its commitments under the Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) and its reluctance to enact updated allowances for senior personnel in public universities.

TUSAAG, in an official statement, articulated its discontent regarding the government’s persistent neglect of the agreements established in July 2024, subsequent to a directive issued by the Ministry of Finance in May 2024.

The association observed that the neglect to uphold these commitments represents a breach of their rights and underscores the government’s disregard for their concerns.

“The Technical University Senior Administrators Association of Ghana (TUSAAG) announces a nationwide strike action commencing tomorrow, 27th September 2024, as a direct response to the government’s neglect of its commitments under the Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) and its failure to execute the revised allowances for senior members of public universities,” portions of the statement articulated.

It was stated that “we have explored all avenues for dialogue.” The persistent lack of action is not merely objectionable; it constitutes a definitive violation of the CBA.

The collective further alleged that the government is partaking in biased practices, preferentially supporting other unions within public universities regarding the disbursement of common allowances, while disregarding the interests of TUSAAG members.

The organization delineated essential requests, encompassing the prompt disbursement of stipulated allowances, which include vehicle maintenance, off-campus, fuel, utility, and sanitation/security allowances. They additionally requested a formal recognition of their concerns and a pledge to thoroughly execute the provisions of the CBA.

TUSAAG has announced, “Effective tomorrow, we shall cease all services across every technical university in Ghana until our demands are satisfactorily addressed.”
