It will be recalled that but for a last minute agreement after over 10 hours of marathon meetings between leaders of NLC, TUC and NGF, as well as another meeting with the Federal government on the eve of a three-day warning strike, the nation would have been shut down by labour and its civil society allies.<\/p>\n

The six-point agreement between the Federal Government and organized labour, that aborted the strike read ,\u00a0 AThe Federal Government agrees to comply with the New National Minimum Wage (Amendment) Act 2011.\u00a0\u00a0 The Federal Government shall conclude negotiations with Labour on the implementation of the New National Minimum Wage not later than 31st July, 2011. Detailed negotiations on the relativity implications(s) of the implementation of the New National Minimum Wage Act, 2011 will be concluded not later than 31st July, 2011. The new wages will be implemented with effect from 1st August 2011.<\/p>\n

The arrears of the new wage with effect from 23rd March 2011 will be paid not later than 31st August, 2011.\u00a0 No worker shall be victimized in any manner or form as a consequence of the implementation of the New National Minimum Wage. In line with the Agreement earlier reached with the Federal Government and State Governors, Labour resolves to suspend the 3-day warning strike across the country.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
