Labour Commission discontinues case with Railway IMC

Wed, 9 Apr 2008 Source: GNA

Sekondi, April 9,-GNA- A Sekondi High Court on Wednesday discontinued a case in which the National Labour Commission (NLC) was seeking a court order to compel striking workers and the Interim Management Committee (IMC) of the Ghana Railway Company.

The NLC, in an application filed by Madam Efiba Amihere, said the NLC would no longer continue with the case since the workers had resumed work. The court, presided over by Mr. Justice Anthony Oppong, therefore struck out the case.

It would be re-called that the NLC on March 31 this year instituted legal action against the workers and the IMC to compel them to resume work.

The court adjourned to April 9, to enable the defence prepare adequately.

Workers of the GRC began a strike action on February 15 in protest over unpaid salaries, delayed promotions and called for the dismissal of the Managing Director Mr. Rufus Quaye.
