The Ghana Mine Workers Union has voiced its displeasure with the management of the Precious Minerals Marketing Company (PMMC) over plans to dismiss around 50 employees.
In response to a government directive ordering the termination of appointments made after December 7, 2024, the union has begun engaging management to resolve the matter.
The union’s General Secretary, Abdul Moomin Gbana, emphasized that they will fiercely resist any action that violates labor laws.
“In respect of PMMC, there has been some contemplation of a kind. They have indicated to the union, what we have told them as a preliminary response is that look, the laws are available, ensure that whatever your intentions are, you do so in accordance with the law.
“Anything contrary to law, the Ghana Mine Workers Union will resist it. Even though these recruitments were done and the timing was clearly not the best, it is also not the reason why the current government should go down a similar route.”
