BOST workers call off strike

Striking workers of the Bulk Oil Storage and Transport Company have called off their strike.

The decision was taken at an emergency meeting with management of the oil storage distribution company.

Junior workers of BOST started the strike on Tuesday to protest poor conditions of service.

They have accused management of mismanaging vital installations of the company with the intention of laying off workers.

Head of Corporate Affairs Nat Salifu Acheampong told XYZ BUSINESS “management has instituted a committee to review the conditions of service and this committee is spearheaded by the senior staff association. Whatever recommendations they normally come out with it affects all the staff.”

Mr. Acheampong added the strike has not disrupted supply of petroleum products.
