Is a national strike looming in the public sector?

In 2007, government through the Presidential Directive instructed appointing authorities in various ministries to multiply graded and multiply  all the C Band positions to read C1.2.3/4 to create a pool of posts so as to fast track the promotion of serving officers and such new dispensation was 1 April 2007.

Another commendable move by government to improve efficiency, reduce staff grievances, and labour disputes in the Public Service was the establishment of an Independent Employee Relations division in ministries/departments and appointed therein-competent officers to deal with issues of labour relations.
