The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has promised to offer better conditions of service to workers if voted into power.
The party gave the assurance in a statement issued to workers, to mark May Day.
“We in the NDC are proud of our relationship with workers and we do hereby encourage them to stand tall in their unflinching loyalty to the cause of Ghana. The NDC further assures all workers that a future NDC government will commit to a much better handling of the economy and award them their due remuneration in recognition of their sterling role in lifting high the flag of Ghana,” the statement said.
“This is a non-negotiable assurance that we owe to workers in order to maintain their faith in the choice they have made to serve this nation for both the present and future generations.”
The COVID-19 pandemic, which resulted in a lockdown of some parts of the country in 2020, led to a number of job losses.
The party thus urged workers to give off their best in the wake of the challenges caused by the pandemic.
“In the face of the abject hopelessness generated by the appalling incompetence of the Akufo-Addo government, and compounded by the devastating onslaught of the COVID-19 pandemic, the NDC urges workers to continue to commit themselves to their work and the nation in order to lubricate the wheels of progress and development.”

NDC MESSAGE TO THE WORKERS OF GHANA ON MAY DAY, 2021
On the ocassion of May Day 2021, the National Democratic Congress salutes all workers of Ghana. The NDC, as a Social Democratic party, solidarizes with the aspirations of the teeming workers of the country upon whose tireless labour the nation thrives.
In the face of the abject hopelessness generated by the appalling incompetence of the Akufo-Addo government, and compounded by the devastating onslaught of the Covid-19 pandemic, the NDC urges workers to continue to commit themselves to their work and the nation in order to lubricate the wheels of progress and development.
For it is their sweat and toil that stabilize the nation even as the people of Ghana continue to endure the scandal-ridden Akufo-Addo government.
We in the NDC are proud of our relationship with workers and we do hereby encourage them to stand tall in their unflinching loyalty to the cause of Ghana.
The NDC further assures all workers that a future NDC government will commit to a much better handling of the economy and award them their due remuneration in recognition of their sterling role in lifting high the flag of Ghana. This is a non-negotiable assurance that we owe to workers in order to maintain their faith in the choice they have made to serve this nation for both the present and future generations.
For their uncountable contributions to Ghana, their commitment and dedication to duty, for their love for and
loyalty to Ghana, we hail all the workers of Ghana.
LONG LIVE THE WORKERS OF GHANA!
LONG LIVE THE NDC!
LONG LIVE GHANA!!!
