Ghana's National Labor Commission, NLC says it has taken the necessary steps to get the grievances of teachers resolved immediately.

As a result, the Commission has written to the government to engage the striking teachers while it has called on them to also rescind their industrial action.

Recall that on Monday, four major teacher unions including the National Association of Graduate Teachers, and the Teachers and Educational Workers Union, announced the withdrawal of services as a result of the government’s seeming unwillingness to pay a cost of living allowance (COLA) of 20 percent.
