The Controller and Accountant General has served notice for non-payment of 4% salary arrears for some Ghana Education Service, GES and Ghana Health Service, GHS staff.

The Accountant General said the last two months' arrears of the 4% salary increment for 2021 was expected to be paid as part of salaries for December 2021.

While this has been processed for all Public Servants on the payroll, only 40% of GES staff and 20% of GHS staff were paid the aforementioned arrears.

They explained that this was due to a system performance hitch that was going to unduly delay the payment of December salaries for the entire public servants beyond the scheduled pay date.
