Fair Wages and Salaries Commission denies CLOGSAG allegation

Accra, Feb. 8, GNA - The Fair Wages and Salaries Commission (FWSC) has described allegations by the National Executive Committee of Civil and Local Government Staff Association of Ghana (CLOGSAG) published in the Friday, February 3, 2012 edition of the Daily Graphic as unfortunate, misinformed, misleading and not factual.

A statement issued by the Public Affairs Unit of the FWSC in Accra on Wednesday reacting to the publication explained that: "As at October 21, 2011, the Accounting Class had been migrated onto the Single Spine Salary Structure as per the Commission's letter No. FWSC/D/SCR.30/Vol.1/13."

On the Top-Up Allowance, the Commission explained that in the Commission's scheme of work, there was no allowance by name "Top-Up". This is completely alien to the Single Spine Pay Policy.&r'
