The Civil and Local Government Staff Association of Ghana (CLOGSAG) says it would kick against any government intention to retrench public service officials due to the implementation of the Single Spine Pay Policy (SSPP).<\/p>\n
A statement signed by the Executive Secretary of CLOGSAG in Accra,\u00a0Isaac Bampoe Addo\u00a0noted that they were not told at the conception and inception of the SSPP, that the implementation of the policy would include retrenchment in the public service.<\/p>\n
He said the report, which formed the basis of the policy as well as the Technical Committee established by the Ministry of Public Sector Reform on the SSPP did not include any retrenchment clause as part of the framework.<\/p>\n
The statement said the briefing notes prepared by the Technical Team in April, 2009 for the Ministers of Finance and Economic Planning and Employment and Social Welfare and the government\u2019s own white paper issued in November 2009 on the implementation of SSPP did not mention retrenchment.<\/p>\n
The statement said: \u201cIt is therefore puzzling that the government is intending to introduce retrenchment in the public services as part of the implementation of the SSPP,” and said CLOGSAG would not sit back and watch any killer policy on its members.<\/p>\n
It said if the policy becomes a reality the association would advise itself.<\/p>\n
