Ghana’s National Tripartite Committee (NTC) recently announced in Accra a 10 per cent hike in daily minimum wage of workers. The raise will take the new minimum wage from GH¢9.68 to GH¢10.65 beginning January 1 next year. The decision was taken after a series of meetings between the government and labour and employers’ associations over the past four months.
Minister for employment and labour relations Ignatius Baffour Awuah said any establishment , institution or organisation that flouted the new wage regulations would attract legal action, according to Ghanian media reports. (DS)
