Metro Mass workers on sit down strike over unpaid salaries

Metro Mass workers on sit down strike over unpaid salaries

Metro Mass Transit Limited employees are going on strike over two months of unpaid wages.

The workers also claim that the nationwide strike is the result of five years of incompetent management by the company’s management.

They demand that the management team be fired immediately.

Anthony Appiah, Secretary to the Union’s Senior Staff Division, stated that “everything of ours is not working.” If you have been given room as executives for five years, and for the first time in the company’s history, there are three managing directors, and we are not seeing anything from them in terms of growth, worker welfare, and service to the nation, we must go on strike.”

Senior and junior workers at the company’s depot in Kumasi, Ashanti Region, joined the nationwide sit-down strike over their working conditions.
Aside from not receiving salaries for months, they claim that several other pertinent concerns raised over the years have gone unaddressed.

Management at the terminal has also thrown in the towel, claiming that the failure to address their concerns has made life unbearable for them.

“For about three months now, approximately 90% of workers have not been paid, and they have provided no tangible reason.” It’s pathetic,” one management member told Citi News on the condition of anonymity.
