Finance Ministry grants clearance for payment of 2022/2023 Rotation Nurses allowances
Rotation Nurses who began their Rotation from July 2022, will soon receive their allowances after several months of not being paid.
This follows the granting of approval by the Ministry of Finance to the Controller and Accountant General to pay allowances to some 16,559 Rotation Nurses and Midwives and Allied Health Interns across the country.
“By this letter the Controller and Accountant-General’s Department is requested to effect the payment of their allowances and make appropriate deductions of Social Security and Income Tax to SSNIT and the Domestic Tax Division of the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA) respectfully when the period is over,” the Ministry of Finance noted in a letter to the Account General’s Department.
In May 2023, the Rotational Nurses And Midwives Association (RNMA) urged its members to remain calm as leadership took the necessary steps to get their allowances paid.
This came on the back of an unannounced visit to the Ministry of Health (MoH) by the association on Thursday, 18 May 2023.
The Rotational Nurses had not receive any allowances since they were deployed by the National Service Secretariat (NSS) in June 2022.
