Citi News<\/strong> revealed that before their migration onto the Single Spine Salary Structure junior police officers with constable rank were collecting a monthly salary of GHc 250 cedis.<\/p>\nAfter their migration onto the new pay policy, all the constables\u2019 salaries were upwardly adjusted to GHc 1000 cedis.<\/p>\n
Others have revealed that their landlords are ejecting them for unpaid rent.<\/p>\n
Attempts to get the Director General of Public Affairs Department of the Ghana Police Service, DCOP David Ampah Benin proved futile.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, the Chief Executive Officer of the Fair Wages and Salaries Commission, Mr. Smith Graham has confirmed the officers have not been paid but pleaded they exercise some restraint.<\/p>\n
He said, \u201cI am not sure it is accurate to say that since they were migrated they have not been paid anything because they were the first to be migrated; I believe what they are referring to now are the arrears for 2013 and the arrears we are still working on it.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mr. Graham advised, \u201cIt is a process and I think that they just need to be patient, their management is working very hard in going through the processes to ensure that these things are done properly.\u201d<\/p>\n
It will be recalled that the police service was one of the first groups to be migrated onto the new pay structure.<\/p>\n
This created uproar among personnel of other security agencies with officers of the Ghana Prisons Service evening threatening to abandon their duties.<\/p>\n
