Teachers and staff at the Ghana Education Service have witnessed an increment in their basic pay, after the 30 percent increase in the Single Spine Salary Structure for public sector workers.

This increment took effect from January 1, 2023, and also includes a 15 percent market premium which the government has also agreed to for all teachers and other public sector workers.

The 30 percent is the biggest increment organised labour has secured out of negotiations with the government since 2010 when the government increased the base pay by 20 percent and again by the same margin in 2011.
