Fair Wages and Salaries Commission responds to NCCE division’s planned strike

The Fair Wages and Salaries Commission (FWSC) has urged the Divisional Executive Council (DEC) of the National Commission for Civic Education (NCCE) Division of the Public Services Workers’ Union (PSWU) of the Trades Union Congress (TUC), to reconsider its decision to embark on strike action on Wednesday, September 18, 2024.

The Commission in a statement dated Monday, September 17, 2024, said it “regrets the decision by the NCCE Division of PSWU to embark on strike action, particularly at a time when negotiations are still ongoing.”

The Commission explained that it has been engaging with the NCCE Division of PSWU in good faith as part of the negotiation process to conclude the negotiation on the Conditions of Service for NCCE staff.

That, it said, “the FWSC has not employed any “delay tactics” as described by the union but has been engaging the union since the rules of engagement were signed on July 23, 2024.”

The Commission said it remains committed to the negotiations, urging the NCCE Division of PSWU to reconsider its decision to embark on the strike action as planned.
