Then the law should also look at how long negotiations can last. Certainly negotiations cannot go on forever. Pharmacists claim its over 4 years, doctors over 8 months. What else should they do? Hon. pls come again

If people have to work for 11 months without being paid, how can you limit strikes? If government acts only when workers strike,why should strikes be limited? Why even talk about 72 hours and not just abolish it altogether?

There is an Adage which says "Anobr33br33 ma anaa t33" retrally, means if you know how to talk there will be peace. Therefore, the Government should have be wise enough to know how to talk in a manner that will let the Doctors feel at peace but not to reign insult on them. After all they are our father's, brother's and family members. Politics is killing our Nation is Bad politics, especially those fools who talk for NDC Party are those who are making things worse . Meanwhile they get things free with tax payers money. Mahama too must know how to talk as a father of the Nation. You don't put in more fire when the fire is been tried to quench. Doctors and all the Public workers deserve better condition of service to enable them survive their future when they are no longer at work or in service. This is some people's life, some people future. How they could take care of their children's future like any other citizen

Today you are no longer just an 'ordinary' worker, so a monkey like you can sit in an air-conditioned ministerial office and make policy on what public employees can or cannot do. In a generation gone by, your elders would have worked as houseboys, gatemen, watchmen, gardenboys or shit-carriers; then you could open your pito and kola stained mouth and spew such rubbish about what workers should and should not be allowed to do. Pepeni aboa!

Remember to include how many hours it should take a government (sorry yours is not a government) rather the evil dwarfs to solve petitions from workers so that the dont start strike actions. Talkertive useless minister appointed by tribes man dead goat, adding when it is time to do subtraction. Dead goat and useless brainless team claiming they are in control of Ghana. You guys think Ghana is like Tamale Zongo where you eat the dog meat and drink pito and begin to say anything.

outdated Unions in Ghana don't understand today's world.

They destroy society and Ghana's competitive position in the world and thus shooting themselfs in the foot.

I totally agree with you. The Unions should be required by law to put strike proposals to members to vote on. The votes should be supervised by the EC. at least 2/3 of the members should present and vote. No strike action should go beyond 3 days and not more than 9 days in any year.

critical profession should not be allowed to go on strike. The doctors, nurses, pharmacist should be put in the same category such as the army, police, fire service, customs and immigration.

When the various interest groups prompted your Mahama-led NDC gov't about what they intended to do one clear year, if nothing was done about their situation, you Haruna"adumdum adumdum b3 gya3"Iddrisu was deeply embedded in the pursuit of filthy, ill-gotten money. You were completely consumed by your sexual voyeuristic tendencies, using the filthy, ill-gotten money to buy Iphones and tablets to give to your girlfriends to go and capture and record the sexual organs and sexual escapades of your colleague MP's and Ministers.
That was of more concern and importance to you as an Employment and Labour Minister, than ensuring workers in this country had their issues resolved to prevent just exactly what we are all witnessing today.
And you have the guts to say "workers shouldn't be allowed to strike for more than 72hrs". You think this is a strike? Did the Doctors say it was a strike?
What about gov't not allowed to fool around with workers issues and to resolve them within 48hours?
Ghanaians are saying they have had it up to here with the failed leadership and failed governance of the John Dramani Mahama NDC gov't and ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.
