Public sector pay must reflect workers’ value and state’s capacity – Pelpuo

The proposed legislation will repeal the Fair Wages and Salaries Commission Act, 2007 (Act 737), and establish IPEC as the institution responsible for Ghana’s public sector compensation framework.

The Minister of Labour, Jobs and Employment, Dr Rashid Pelpuo, has called for a public sector pay framework that balances fair remuneration with the state’s fiscal capacity.

Mr Ansah said Organised Labour would closely monitor the reform process and work with Government to establish a fair, transparent and equitable public sector pay system.
