Organised Labour strike: GMA refuses to join, urges members to continue services
Accra, Ghana - October 8, 2024 - The Ghana Medical Association (GMA) has instructed its members to continue providing full services without interruptions, despite the upcoming nationwide industrial action announced by Organised Labour, set to begin on Thursday, October 10, 2024.
This decision was made clear by GMA President Dr. Frank Serebour in a statement issued on Tuesday, October 8, 2024.
Dr. Serebour clarified, “The Ghana Medical Association (GMA) has not declared a roadmap for industrial action. Therefore, all members are expected to continue providing full services without interruptions.”
He also expressed the GMA’s solidarity with Organised Labour in its campaign against illegal mining, commonly referred to as “galamsey,” but emphasized that the GMA would not be joining the strike yet.
“The GMA, however, is in solidarity with Organised Labour in this fight against galamsey. The National Executive Council (NEC) will provide further information when necessary,” Dr. Serebour added.
