TUTAG gives government August 31 deadline on post-retirement salary arrears

The Technical University Teachers Association of Ghana (TUTAG) has demanded that the government pay outstanding salaries and allowances to affected staff by August 31. Professor Deodat E. Adenutsi, TUTAG's president, stated that some staff members had been unpaid for up to 24 months while continuing their professional responsibilities.

TUTAG argues that the government-approved post-retirement contracts require timely compensation for the services rendered. The association has engaged various state institutions and technical university management to resolve the issue, but warns that continued delays could disrupt academic activities. Prof. Adenutsi also addressed a dispute over a 2021 Scheme of Service change that altered promotion requirements for assistant lecturers without proper consultation. The association has called for peaceful and collaborative discussions to address these issues.
