From 2021 Should Parliament Aim To Make Ghana Africa's First No-Go-Territory For Ruthless-And-Exploitative-Employers?

Ghanaians are a freedom-loving, civilised and mostly-aspirational people, who work hard - and love to have good-cheer-fun, too. That productivity-and-life-balance, constantly guides the sovereign citizens, of the Republic of Ghana. In one's humble view, thus far, somehow,  perhaps we have survived COVID-19, because of that.


To continue fighting the existential threat COVID-19 poses, the protection of the rights of employees,  ought to be the bedrock upon which, from 2021, the transformation of our homeland Ghana into a law-abiding-commercial territory, in which no employers can cloak the hiring of permanent-workers, as casual-labourers, without any rights whatsoever - and legally continue to remain in business. Full stop. Case closed.


That is why Parliament must pass all the needed legistlation, in 2021, to ensure  that ours becomes an attractive fair-employment corporate-landscape, in continental Africa's  free-trade area.


Simply put, to withstand present, and forecasted coming global pandemics,  Ghana must become a fair and inclusive society,  in which both businesses and their workforces collaborate, in win-win fashion. In other words, from 2021, to make us resilient and better able to withstand global pandemics, Parliament must aim to make Ghana Africa's first no-go-territory, for ruthless-and-exploitative-employers, by passing all the needed underpinning-preventative-legislation. Cool.
