The Union of Professional Nurses and Midwives, Ghana (UPNMG), the Professional Association of Psychiatric Nurses, Ghana (PAPNG), the Ghana Registered Midwives Association (GRMA), and the National Association of Registered Midwives, Ghana (NARM-G), have jointly announced significant progress in the ongoing negotiations concerning the Conditions of Service (CoS) for nurses and midwives.
In a press statement issued on Thursday, June 12, the unions expressed satisfaction with the constructive dialogue that has taken place with the government and relevant stakeholders. The unions attributed this progress to their unwavering commitment to collaboration and professionalism throughout the negotiation process.
“These gains are the result of our unions’ unwavering commitment to dialogue, collaboration, and professionalism,” the statement read.
“Throughout this period, we have chosen to engage constructively with the government and stakeholders while ensuring continuity of care for the public. Our approach has reaffirmed our conviction that sustainable outcomes are best achieved through negotiation, rather than confrontation.”
The unions also expressed heartfelt appreciation to all members who remained at their posts during the period of uncertainty, commending their dedication and service.
“Your dedication has brought credibility to our cause and played a critical role in securing these achievements,” the statement continued.
In light of the progress made, the unions respectfully called on the leadership of the Ghana Registered Nurses and Midwives Association (GRNMA) to call off the ongoing strike and return to work. The unions emphasized the importance of unity and collaboration in advancing the interests of the nursing and midwifery professions.
“This is the time to unite our efforts, protect the integrity of our profession, and demonstrate to the nation that nurses and midwives stand for both advocacy and responsibility,” the statement concluded.
The unions assured members that further updates would be communicated in due course and urged continued calm, unity, and vigilance as leadership continues to engage with the government and other stakeholders.
