The Ghana Mine Workers Union has expressed dissatisfaction with the management of the Precious Minerals Marketing Company over plans to terminate the employment of approximately 50 staff members.
The union has initiated discussions with management to address the issue, following a government directive ordering the termination of appointments made after December 7, 2024.
General Secretary of the Ghana Mine Workers Union, Abdul Moomin Gbana, stated that the union will strongly oppose any action that contravenes labor laws.
“In respect of PMMC, there has been some contemplation of a kind. They have indicated to the union, what we have told them as a preliminary response is that look, the laws are available, ensure that whatever your intentions are, you do so in accordance with the law.
“Anything contrary to law, the Ghana Mine Workers Union will resist it. Even though these recruitments were done and the timing was clearly not the best, it is also not the reason why the current government should go down a similar route.”
