In the statement, the unions explained that they have been advocating for an upward review of the VMA for some time and are demanding immediate inclusion in the recent adjustments.
They have given the Fair Wages and Salaries Commission a deadline of June 21, 2024, to respond to their demands, failing which they will embark on industrial action.
The leadership of the three unions has urged all members to stand firm and demand justice, believing that equal treatment and fair allowances will promote industrial harmony and enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of tertiary institutions in Ghana.
“The Senior Staff Association-Universities of Ghana (SSA-UoG), the Federation of Senior Staff Association of Ghana (FUSSAG), and the Teachers and Educational Workers Union of Trade Union Congress (TEWU-TUC) are giving notice to the Fair Wages and Salaries Commission of Ghana that we will be compelled to take further action if the Commission fails to rectify the disparity regarding our members in relation to the Vehicle Maintenance Allowance (VMA) and other related allowances.”
