The Construction and Building Material Workers Union (CBMWU) has called on the University Teachers Association of Ghana (UTAG) and other unions not to break away from organised labour.

According to the CBMWU any break away will affect the strength of organised labour in negotiating for conditions of service and other demands of workers.

General Secretary of the Union, Richard Asamoah, spoke exclusively with our labour correspondent Daniel Opoku in Accra on October 10.

Tensions are still rife among some organised labour members after the leadership announced suspension of a nationwide strike.
