Labour Laments Delayed  Implementation of Consequential Salary Adjustment

Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has expressed disappointment over the non-implentation of consequential adjustments by federal and state governments.

In a chat with LEADERSHIP,  the Assistant General Secretary of Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) Comrade Chris Onyeka, noted that  the  Labour centre  is concerned about the reluctancy of private employers of labour and governments at all levels to adjust  payments of entitlements for workers as when due.

Although some states like Imo is paying N104,000, and others: Ebonyi N90,000, Lagos and few others are paying between N80,000, N89,999, Rivers (N85,000); Niger, Enugu, Akwa Ibom, Bayelsa, Oyo (N80,000). N75,000 – N79,999, yet  the entitlements which  ought to be paid whenever staff are promoted to the  next ranks are not being paid.

FG, Trade Unions during collective bargaining between employers and employees normally talk on consequential salary adjustments.
The entitlements are part of the collective bargaining between labour and employers of labour trade unions always agree on consequential salary adjustments in addition to the adjustments under Consolidated Public Service Salary Structure (CONPSS).
