The Congress was attended by 309 delegates and over 150 Observers.
\nThe GRNMA is the Professional Association and Trade Union that holds the Collective Bargaining Certificate covering all nurses and midwives in Ghana and serves as the sole official mouthpiece of nurses and midwives in the country.
\nWithin the period of the Congress, a number of issues affecting the education, practice and general welfare of Ghanaian nurses and midwives were discussed. At the end of Congress, the General Assembly resolved as follows:<\/p>\n
\nThe General Assembly noted with concern the non-implementation of the Book and Research Allowance for Nurse Educators instituted three years ago and the Rural Incentive Package developed by the Ministry of Health (MOH) with the involvement of the GRNMA and other partners and calls for their immediate implementation of same. The Assembly further noted that the expired Collective Agreement of nurses and midwives had not been renegotiated although the leadership of the GRNMA had submitted a proposal to the Fair Wages and Salaries Commission (FWSC) as at August 2023. The Assembly calls on the Employer and the FWSC, as a matter of urgency, to invite the association to begin negotiations on its conditions of service.<\/p>\nGRNMA 2023 NATIONAL AWARDS<\/h3>\n

\nGood evening ladies and gentlemen of the press and thank you for making time for this press conference despite the short notice.
\nWe called you here today to brief you on what has transpired so far following our last Press Conference on 23rd September 2020 when we called off our strike. The main objective is to have the content of this Press Conference reach our members all over Ghana.
\nHaving called off our strike and gone back to the negotiation table, we were able to use the period of four weeks as directed by the National Labour Commission to continue the negotiations and reach an agreement on 21st October 2020.
\nThe agreement was tabled at the NLC on 28th October 2020 as the Commission had directed but unfortunately, the document could not be signed because the signatories were not available.
\nIt was agreed that the parties will meet on Tuesday, 3rd November 2020, and sign the documents and that is what has been done today at the Ministry of Health (MOH).
