TUC requests 20% Cost of Living Allowance from government
Leadership of the Trade Union Congress (Ghana), have made a special appeal to the government requesting for a 20% Cost of Living Allowance (COLA) for workers and pensioners in the country.
In a letter addressed to President Akufo-Addo, General Secretary of the TUC, Dr Yaw Baah, noted the President by his executive powers should institute the 20% COLA for workers.
According to him, the need for the 20% COLA has become necessary due to the country’s high inflation.
Adding that, the COLA will help cushion workers from the harsh effects of inflation and prevent them from mass poverty.
