Ghana's Judicial Service Staff Association and Senior Staff Association have suspended their nationwide strike following discussions on revised salaries and allowances.

The unions directed members to resume work effective Tuesday, November 10, 2026, while remaining commitments are finalised. The Judicial Secretary also instructed courts throughout the country to resume normal sittings on that date.

The development reverses the position reported earlier in the week, when the industrial action was continuing and court operations were disrupted. Court users should follow any specific scheduling notices from their local courts as normal services resume.
