The Judicial Service Staff Association of Ghana and SSAJUG have resolved to suspend their indefinite strike effective Tuesday, 10th November 2026, pending the finalisation of commitments on the outstanding salary review issues.
In a statement dated 9th November 2026, the leadership of the unions said they received official correspondence from the Office of the President regarding the outstanding issues on the review of salaries and related allowances for staff of the Judicial Service.
The leadership also held a meeting with Management, led by the Honourable Chief Justice of the Republic and supported by His Lordship Justice Gabriel Scott Pwamang and the Judicial Secretary, to consider the revised approval issued by the Government.
According to the unions, the revised position of the Government largely addressed the outstanding issues. The leadership, in turn, submitted a revised position on the commitments received from the Office of the President as a final path towards ending the industrial action.
In view of this development, JUSAG and SSAJUG resolved to suspend the strike pending the finalisation of the commitments.
The leadership of JUSAG and SSAJUG commended President John Dramani Mahama, the Chief Justice, His Lordship Justice Paul Baffoe-Bonnie, the President of the Supreme Court, His Lordship Justice Gabriel Scott Pwamang, the Attorney-General and Minister for Justice, Dr Dominic A. Ayine, the Judicial Secretary, Mr Ahamed Musah, and the Management of the Judicial Service for their dedicated leadership, which led to the resolution of the impasse.
The unions also thanked all members of staff for their unwavering support throughout the strike and the media for their professional reportage on the industrial action.
