Newly recruited teachers from the 2024 cohort are picketing at the Ghana Education Service (GES), demanding the issuance of their Staff Identification Numbers and the payment of outstanding salaries and allowances.
According to their leader, Daniel Aidoo, the affected teachers have worked for 14 months without pay due to delays in processing and releasing their Staff IDs since 2024.
The teachers are appealing to the Director-General of GES to urgently intervene, insisting that despite repeated assurances, no concrete action has been taken to resolve the matter.
Mr. Aidoo explained that all required documents were duly submitted to their respective District and Regional Directors, but follow-ups revealed that the documents had been forwarded to the national office for processing.
Responding to the concerns, the Deputy Director-General for Management and Services at GES, Smile Gavua Dzisi, assured the teachers that the issues would be addressed and asked them to resubmit their documents for review and consideration.
Some teachers shared their frustrations, highlighting the financial hardships they have endured after teaching for more than a year without receiving salaries.
