The Government and Hospital Pharmacists Association comprising pharmacists working in government hospitals, clinics and other healthcare facilities are to withdraw their services from Tuesday September 4.
A statement signed by the Chairman of the Association, Stephen Corquaye said pharmacists in the public sector remain the only healthcare professionals who have not been migrated onto the Single Spine Salary Structure following an eleven month stalemate with the Fair Wages and Salaries Commission (FWSC).
It said the Association has realised that the entire system including FWSC and health sector management are keen on perpetrating injustice and bias against it.
The statement said it is unfortunate that not even the intervention of the Minister of Health, his Deputy and the Ghana Health Service Council has found a solution to the problem.
The statement, therefore, urges government to immediately step in to resolve the issue.
