To mitigate the impact of the high inflation rate in the country, the Minister of Labour and Employment, Chris Ngige has said the Federal Government has promised to provide salary increases for civil and public officials soon.<\/p>\n

Ngige, spoke to State House Correspondents after meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, last week Friday.<\/p>\n

According to him, the Presidential Committee on Salaries is already doing a review and is expected to come up with salary adjustment in the new year.<\/p>\n

Ngige, who described 2022 as a year of industrial dispute, said he was at the seat of power to discuss exhaustively issues concerning his ministry including employment and productivity.<\/p>\n

Recall that the minister<\/a> recently made a suggestion that the government will raise worker salaries to reflect the country\u2019s new economic realities brought on by inflation.<\/p>\n

Asked if the issue of salary increase came up in the discussion with the President looking at the rising inflation, he said: \u201cYes, that\u2019s what I am saying that the Presidential Committee on Salaries is working hand-in-hand with the National Salaries Incomes and Wages Commission. The commission is mandated by the Act establishing them to fix salaries, wages, and emoluments in not only the public service.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you want their assistance and you are in the private sector, they will also assist you. They have what is called the template for remuneration, for compensation. So if you work, you get compensated, if you don\u2019t work, you will not be compensated.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo they have the matrix to do the evaluation, so they are working with the Presidential Committee on Salaries Chaired by the finance ministry and I\u2019m the co-chair to look at the demands of the workers. Outside this, I said discussions on that evaluation are going.\u201d<\/p>\n

On whether a time line has been fixed for implementation of new salary increase, Ngige said: \u201cAs we enter the new year government will make some pronouncements in that direction.\u201d<\/p>\n

On the purpose of his visit, he said, \u201cWell, majorly, I came to brief Mr. President, you know the year is coming to an end and we have to look at our 2022 exhaustively. Part of my ministry, we are to discuss labour issues\u2026and what we are able to do. First and foremost, we look at the employment situation in the country and what we have achieved and what we have not achieved.<\/p>\n

\u201cEmployment is high and various policies and I have to tell him the successful ones we are in them. We also had a briefing on productivity viz a viz the various industrial disputes we had in 2022.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a year we can call a year of industrial dispute starting from the February Academic Staff Union of the Universities (ASUU) strike which was joined by other sister unions in the university system and even the people in the research institutes.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd thereafter, threats from various unions including the medical doctors association and its youth wing, the National Association of Resident Doctors, JOHESU which is also the Joint Health Sector Union all were asking for a wage increase.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd asking for wage increase can also be understandable because of what inflation had done in the economy and the attendant cost of living for people who have to be workers in the public sector. In the private sector, the private sector employers have managed their affairs better, maybe, because their finances and its management is within their very audit and they could control it, they could do collective bargaining very easily with their workers.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe banking sector, Food, and beverages and finance insurance everywhere. So there is calm there. We didn\u2019t have the desired calmness on the government\u2019s side because of the government\u2019s finances.<\/p>\n

\u201cHowever, I\u2019ve briefed him, we are doing some review within the Presidential Committee on Salaries, and discussions are ongoing. The doctors are discussing with the ministry of health, insurance people in the public sector discussing and there is a general calmness. Hopefully, within available resources, the government can do something in the coming year.\u201d<\/p>\n

Asked government\u2019s latest position on the eight month\u2019s outstanding salaries Academic Staff University Union (ASUU), he said the matter was now in court for proper interpretation of the Trade Dispute Act as it concerns no work, no pay policy invoked by the government during the strike period.<\/p>\n

He said, \u201cASUU has not pronounced anything on their salaries anymore because it\u2019s one of the issues that was referred to the National Industrial Court for determination, whether a worker who is on strike should be paid in violation of section 43 of the Trade Dispute Act which says when you go on strike, the consequences are these: number one, you will not be paid, you will not be compensated for not going to work to enable your employer keep the industry or enterprise afloat.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat money should not be given to you, and that compensation should not be given. It\u2019s there in Section 43 (1). There is a second leg to Section 43, it also said that that period you were on strike will not count for you as part of your pensionable period of work in your service. That leg, government has not touched it, but the leg of no-work-no-pay has been triggered off by that strike.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo, we are asking the court to look at it. So the matter is out of the hand of the executive (that\u2019s us) and in the hand of the judiciary. ASUU has also put up a defense in court, asking the court, yes we went on strike, but we did that for a reason. So it\u2019s now left for the court to look at it.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
