The Judicial Service Staff Association of Ghana (JUSAG) has announced plans for an indefinite nationwide strike starting Monday, November 2, 2026, over a dispute about reviewed salaries and allowances, according to the Ghana News Agency.

At an October 30 press briefing, JUSAG General Secretary Abdulai Yakubu said the association wanted approval of the reviewed salaries and payment of arrears. The Ghana News Agency reported that the Finance Ministry had proposed paying arrears in instalments, a proposal JUSAG criticised over the absence of a stated payment timeline. This article reports the association's announced plans; it does not claim that the strike has started. Any change resulting from further negotiations would require a news update.
