COLA For Public Sector Workers 2023

Based on the evidence that has been collected up to this point, it is quite possible that organized labor unions will make a request for cost of living allowances (COLA) for the year 2023. This is due to the fact that the government of Ghana has recently implemented new tax policies. COLA negotiations for 2023 are currently continuing for workers in the public sector

Additionally, organized labor has warned that the existing living conditions would be heavily reflected into the basic salary discussion that will take place in 2023. COLA For Public Sector Workers 2023

When negotiations for working conditions begin, elements like as inflation, taxes, and the cost of living will be severely considered, according to Joshua Ansah, deputy secretary general of the Ghana Trades Union Congress (TUC), who believes this will be done in order to safeguard the rights of Ghanaian workers.

Mr. Ansah voiced his displeasure with the current administration’s decision to raise taxes despite the weak situation of the economy during an interview that took place on Monday, with Daniel Opoku of TV3. COLA For Public Sector Workers 2023

According to what he said, given that the TUC’s suggestion that the government should pass the three laws was not followed, the TUC would carefully examine what the taxes generated by the altered bills will be utilized for in order to ensure that they are not wasted.

He made the following statement in reference to the discussions for increased pay: “Definitely, we are going to factor in anything that eroded our gains like inflation, like taxes, like living standards anything that makes our living standards not comfortable will be factored into our negotiations.” COLA For Public Sector Workers 2023

The government has set a goal to generate approximately GH4 billion every year as a supplementary source of revenue for the country. But the deputy general secretary of the TUC argued that although governments have evolved over time, they have never clarified the reason why they impose such onerous tax burdens on the population, particularly on workers.

He expressed his frustration by saying, “We know that taxes are for development but when we pay we don’t see the development that we envisage.”

“We hope to see positive things this time round, otherwise it will be difficult for Ghanaians to be convinced to pay any additional taxes.”

He issued a stern warning: “This time round we are not going to sit down and fold our arms. We are going to monitor what they use the taxes for so that we will hold them accountable for what they use our monies for.”
