Four worker unions in Ghana’s public universities have decided to go on indefinite strike beginning Thursday, October 13, 2022, if the government fails to resolve issues concerning their working conditions.
University Teachers Association of Ghana (UTAG), Tertiary Education Workers Union (TEWU), Senior Staff Association of Universities of Ghana (SSA-UoG), and Ghana Association of University Administration are the unions (GAUA).
The unions are upset by what they call a “blatant unilateral variation of service in the face of hostile economic conditions.”

They have given the government and all stakeholders “one critical week” to reverse the directive that seeks to negatively impact university workers’ working conditions.
The union’s leadership urged all members to remain calm, stating that they will resist any attempt by the government to change the terms of their agreed-upon conditions of service without due process.
