Organised Labour has called off its nationwide strike, which began on Monday, 15th July 2024, in protest against the sale of 60 percent of Social Security and National Insurance Trust (SSNIT) shares in four hotels.
The decision came after SSNIT, in a letter dated 12th July 2024, informed Organised Labour that it had terminated the intended sale of its stake in the hotels to Rock City Hotel, owned by Bryan Acheampong.

At an emergency meeting held in Accra on Monday, Dr. Yaw Baah, Secretary General of the Trades Union Congress, announced the end of the strike and requested all workers to resume work on Tuesday, 16th July 2024.
He indicated that they had given SSNIT a one-month ultimatum to engage with them to address all outstanding issues related to the management of pensions, warning that they would “advise themselves” if SSNIT fails to meet this demand.
Dr. Baah expressed gratitude to all the working people of Ghana and all Organised Labour groups for their support during the strike.
