NLC secures injunction against GRNMA’s strike

-

The National Labour Commission (NLC) has secured an interlocutory injunction to halt the strike action by the Ghana Registered Nurses and Midwives Association (GRNMA).

This comes after the association defied NLC’s directive to call off the strike.

The injunction granted by the Accra High Court has restrained the GRNMA from continuing its strike, which began on June 4.

The strike, which has severely impacted healthcare delivery across the country, is to demand the implementation of the 2024 Collective Agreement, which has yet to be enforced.

Meanwhile, the four unions have explained that during a joint meeting held on May 27, 2025, all parties agreed to postpone any industrial action pending further consultations and a scheduled meeting with the Minister for Finance, Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson.

They have since expressed concerns over what they describe as GRNMA’s unilateral decision to proceed with the strike despite that collective resolution.
