Such a person is a chairperson of a party? Fire all the 12 union workers? Where does this man reason from? Instead of government trying to negotiate with them on who manages the accounts of the workers which is not for the government, you are talking of firing them? This man needs to reason like an adult. Let the government fire them and we shall see how many people will die at the hospitals, how many students in boarding schools will become pregnant, what food will students eat at school. Is it hard for government to agree on who manages the accounts of these workers but monitors and audits it periodically? What about moneys deducted but not deposited into any account? Modern workers are no fools and the situation of yesteryears are different from today. Let Ghana water, Electricity corps, Zoomlion and others join the strike and let us see what the government can do. Dr. Lartey, talk some sense like an experienced adult.

Max, I am too old to know the history of what you are talking about. This is a different issue. The money is for the workers so the government cannot arbitrarily decide on who manages it, which bank handles it and to which account such money is paid into as well as the interests it raises without the knowledge of workers. Workers must have a greater say on who manages their pension funds. Bank of Ghana workers have been given the right to decide on where their pension funds are paid and who manages it. Is what is good for the goose not good for the gander?
It was the Mahama admn which allowed such simple demands degenerate into a 12 union strike. The workers simply don't trust the government with their money.
Max, I very much know the ramifications of strike. When workers were on strike, a close relative of mine was just coming out of comma and it was tough on the family. As a former teacher in Ghana, I never appreciated when teachers went on strike and students became unsurpervised. It resulted in teenage pregnancies, drugs and alcohol abuse, students roaming in town and indulging in all sorts of vices. However, workers can also not compromise their pension money. They must think about their future. The government appointees are making matters worse by being rude to striking workers. This is like stoking the embers. People are talking about government should not pay striking workers. Some have not been paid for 22 months and were still going to work so what shall be new to them if they are not paid during the striking period? It is the country that suffers most. Did you see it on al Jazeera how Rail drivers' strike has brought Germany to a standstill? The government must rather be more responsible to regain the trust of workers, especially in the face that some deductions from workers accounts totaling over 2.5 Million Dollars have not been deposited into any account. How will you feel if you were a Ghanaian worker?

Frank,the employees deserve to know where the money is deposited and how much they have there but have absolutely no right to decide where that money is deposited.
You live in America,tell the world which company you know in the world that employees decide where their pension fund is deposited or managed,come back here and let us know.
Even the 401K the employers choose the fund managers,the employers only choose the investors under the umbrella of that company and the terms of the fund varies from company to company for instance some you can borrow without the knowledge of your employer but some companies don't allow you to borrow from the fund unless you can prove you are using the money for the list of items they have listed and some you will have to pay off what you borrow before taking another loan while some you can borrow again so long as you have enough in the percentage you are quality to borrow and let me tell you that few companies that have pension funds employees cannot borrow from Texas fund.
So,again tell us which company you know that allows employees to choose a fund manager while the employer only audits as you want us to know,come again.
And for your information if you don't how strikes work, in America or the civilized world if you go on strike it is the responsibility of the Union to pay you and if the Union does not have the funds to pay you don't get paid until you get back to work,nobody pays workers on strike so tell us why you think if rich countries like America don't pay people on strike a poor country like Ghana should do so.
The reason why we have frequent strikes in Ghana is because they get paid while on strike but if they don't get paid for even a day the workers will turn against their leaders and ask them to negotiate but the government is not smart to know that.
Nobody will like to stay home not being paid just because their leaders want them to do so and even the leaders know what will happen to them if their members lose their salaries as a result of a strike.
We need to stop misleading people and stop supporting wrong doing in the name of politics.
The leadership of these workers who are always calling for strikes without votes from their members are enemies of progress and destroyers.

Secondly in many developed countries like USA public workers are banned from going on strike by law.If they dare go on strike the leaders are jailed and the whole workers fired. President Regan fired all the air traffic controllers when they went on strike

CPP is the better alternative to clean and bring Ghana back to where we belong. God did not put us in the center of the world for nothing. HE put us there with all the worthy for a reason to champion the course for Africa.
These savages have no clue about the world economy. How many of these fuckers spend about five hours on their jobs daily. Majority of them get to the office late and leave before time. The problem is not the politicians but the general mentality of some Ghanaians. They want the govt to take care of them all the time. They lack the matching pursuit with their scathing criticisms. This bogus narcotic people party radiated some kind of anxiety on their foolish minds.

You don't fire workers when they go on strike. You rather attend to their request. At the same time you don't have to pay workers when they are on strike. This will force labour unions to call for fewer strikes and the workers to hold their Union leaders accountable to finding better agreements in the shortest possible time. Going on strike is optional the worker agrees to lay down his tools at one's own risk, Or it should be the workers Union itself that must settle the wages for the days that they remain on strike. This is what happens in most democratic nations.

Such a person is a chairperson of a party? Fire all the 12 union workers? Where does this man reason from? Instead of government trying to negotiate with them on who manages the accounts of the workers which is not for the go ...

Max, I am too old to know the history of what you are talking about. This is a different issue. The money is for the workers so the government cannot arbitrarily decide on who manages it, which bank handles it and to which ac ...

Frank,the employees deserve to know where the money is deposited and how much they have there but have absolutely no right to decide where that money is deposited.

Karikari, the contribution to the pension funds is 18.55 out of that the government contributes 13% and the workers 5.5% so the government has a major say in how the funds are administered.

WE ARE TALKING ABOUT THE RULE OF LAW NOT MARSHAL LAW. LET US CONSIDER WHAT THE LAW SAYS ABOUT THE MANAGEMENT OF THE TIER 2 PENSION MONEY.
I won't blame you. If you are among the workers who have worked for two/three yrs without any pay. Go to the villages and see for yourself hardship people especially Teachers are going through.
Because you have no visions you will never never understand Dr Lartey .where are the co operative banks and the banks for housing and construction. For me I think government can keep safe our money than the so call PRIVATE
Cha, you are not in support of the government so say the workers are right? Why are platforms created for labour disputes to be resolved through negotiations?
Mind you, you want Akufo-Addo as the President of Ghana but be ...

I think this man( lartey)is completely mad .he is corrupt he knows nothing and he must sack from GCPP as early as possible

Thanks Dr Lartey,Labour Unions don't even know the negative effects of strike. When students fail exams and patients die in the Hospitals, they go back to take their salaries for the period that they were home not working. Th ...

Who do you blame for the unfortunate situations you have enumerated? After all, the said money deducted is not for the government. So, why should the government allow workers to go on strike as to who manages it? Do you know ...

I'd want Dr Lartey to rather advise government to stop the injustice against workers. Dr Kwame Ampadu says it better, "Kukrukukru no gyae a, keke no nso begyae".
NDC GOVT IS BUSY LOOTING GYEEDA, SUBAH, SADA, FAKE JUDGEMENT DEBTS, ETC AND YET THIS STUPID BUFFOOON CALLED LARTEY IS MUTE BUT IS SPEAKING WHEN NDC CHOPPED WORKERS PENSION MONIES....STUPID FOOOOOOOOOOOOOLISH DR,
don't u know that parents/wards of public basic schs DO NOT PAY ANY FEES?
every good professional thinks of his/her FUTURE
THANKS YOU'LL A FUTURE LEADER. THE LEADERS SHOULD BE FIRED.
Another stomach politician in the making.your father appointed his vice when he didn't know the sex of his appointee,foolish,like father like son,
Another stomach politician in the making
Why blame this man, is not his fault. I strongly blame him mother for not causing abortion
You want to be president of Ghana, hahaha interesting. Even John Mahama is, so we can understand why you think you have a chance. The question is why are workers refusing to negotiate? Think before you talk.
You make more sense when you keep quiet.
i know that only very few people will support Dr Lartey. why? because he is speaking the truth, that's all. today labor unions' leadership considers their "political party's interest" above the common national interest. their ...

Dr. Lartey is not a fool. He is trying to see if that will impress Prez J. Mahama to give him a post. After all his party is not earning him anything.

You don't fire workers when they go on strike. You rather attend to their request. At the same time you don't have to pay workers when they are on strike. This will force labour unions to call for fewer strikes and the worker ...

As a good communicator you must also put yourself in the shoes of your listeners Dr..you consider yourself as a member of the labour union.Hmmmmmm Ghana because of politics we deny the truth and believe a lie.
As a good communicator you put yourself in the shoes of your audience. I guess you wouldn't have talked like this if you are member.pls let them express their feelings as you are there chopping our money.
SEE THAT SILLY MAN. IT IS ONLY IN THIS UNCIVILIZED SOCIETY CALLED GHANA THAT SUCH FOOLS WILL PORTRAY THEMSELVES AS OPINION LEADERS. IN FACT HE DESERVES A BOKO HARAM STYLE OF ACTION. KWASEAAA!!!
The employer should be excused from paying striking workers. Whether the strikes are legitimate or otherwise the union which has called its members to strike should be responsible for the strikers' pay. As it is today the emp ...
