The National Labour Commission (NLC) has directed the Ghana Association of University Administrators (GAUA) to suspend its intended strike action.
The directive comes as the Commission moves to resolve a dispute involving the Ghana Tertiary Education Commission (GTEC), which has been accused of failing to comply with a previous ruling.
In a statement issued on Wednesday, June 25, 2025, the NLC confirmed receipt of GAUA’s petition and referred all parties to its earlier communication dated June 9, which instructed GAUA to engage directly with GTEC on the matter.
The Commission has set July 9, 2025, as the deadline for both parties to report on the outcome of their discussions.
“The Union is therefore directed to refrain from any intended action… since parties are scheduled to appear before the Commission on 9th July, 2025, at 11:00 a.m. for reporting,” the statement read.
Meanwhile, the NLC has directed GTEC to submit a formal response regarding the allegation of non-compliance by the close of business on Friday, June 27.
Should GTEC assert that the Commission’s orders have been fulfilled, it is required to provide supporting evidence to that effect.
