The Judicial Service Staff Association of Ghana (JUSAG) has announced that its indefinite strike will continue on Monday, November 9, 2026, following the failure of the government and Judicial Service Management to respond to its revised demands.
In an update issued on Sunday, November 8, JUSAG said its leadership, in collaboration with the Judicial Service Staff Association of Ghana (SSAJUG), had engaged the government and Judicial Service Management over the past few days in an effort to reach an agreement.
The unions said they communicated their final demands to the government on Thursday, November 5, describing the revised position as the best possible offer to improve staff living conditions and restore justice delivery.
However, as of 4:00 p.m. on Sunday, the unions said they had received no official feedback from either the government or Judicial Service Management.
JUSAG further directed all Judicial Service staff, including those serving at the Supreme Court, to stay away from work for the duration of the strike.
The association expressed regret over the inconvenience the industrial action may cause the public and institutions that depend on judicial services but maintained that staff conditions had made it impossible for them to resume work.
It said the strike would remain in force until its demands were met and members were sufficiently satisfied and motivated to return to work.
The statement was jointly signed by JUSAG General Secretary Abdulai Yakubu and SSAJUG General Secretary George Taylor.
