Centre for Policy and Education, a think tank, has urged government to initiate steps to create a database on labour and employment issues as it would be useful for policy planning and project implementation.<\/p>\n<p>It said relevant institutions such as Labour Department at the Ministry of Employment and Labour Relations and the Ghana Statistical Service should be resourced to undertake this project.<\/p>\n<p>Ms Barbara Andoh, Research Associate at IMANI Centre for Policy and Education made the call in Tamale when she presented a report by IMANI Centre for Policy and Education, which assessed the government\u2019s first year in office in relation to its 2016 manifesto promises.<\/p>\n<p>Ms Andoh said there was the need to audit the numerous government interventions targeted at creating employment to identify challenges and find practical solutions to them.<\/p>\n<p>She said government must consolidate the existing employment modules under one or two umbrellas to ensure accountability, easy monitory and savings.<\/p>\n<p>Ms Andoh said government must hasten on..<\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 43 updated by: -1 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer()
