Dr Cassiel Ato Forson, the Finance Minister, has underlined that there is no employment freeze in the public sector.
He brushed aside rumors that the government has stopped hiring in several industries.
Dr. Ato Forson’s remarks coincide with worries over public sector employment prospects, as many people wonder if the government has placed restrictions on new recruitment.
The Finance Minister made this assertion during an interview with Accra-based Channel One TV.
“There is no freeze on employment,” he stated emphatically, reassuring the public that recruitment would continue based on the country’s economic needs.
It is anticipated that his comments will ease the concerns of public sector employees and job seekers over the government’s recruiting practices.
The finance minister further emphasised the government’s commitment to improving work conditions and creating jobs, especially for young people.
The explanation also indicates the government’s intention to maintain vital public services and guarantee that important areas like health and education have enough staff.
The promise from Dr. Ato Forson is consistent with the larger economic strategies meant to boost Ghana’s labor force and promote development.
