The Committee on Consequential Salary Adjustments constituted by the federal government arising from the new Minimum Wage Act 2024 has concluded its assignment with the representatives of government and labour signing a Memoranda of Understanding (MOU).
The Head of Civil Service of the Federation (HCSF), Mrs Didi Esther Walson-Jack, who chaired the committee, commended members for their painstaking efforts.
“Both the Trade Union and the Government sides have agreed on the Consequential Adjustments in Salaries arising from the new minimum wage of N70,000,” she said.
She described the assignment as the shortest and most peaceful negotiations, adding that the signed copy of the MoU would now be forwarded to the Federal Government for further action.
In his remarks, the National Chairman of the Joint Negotiating Council, Comrade Benjamin Anthony, representing the trade union side, expressed satisfaction with the committee’s work.
