The labour unions in the aviation industry had threatened to embark on a national strike over the failure of the government to fulfill its promise on the implementation of minimum wage and consequential adjustment since 2019 and the conditions of service since 2013.

At the end of a meeting, Chris Ngige, minister of labour and employment, emphasised that serious deliberations were made and the parties have agreed.

He said the meeting concluded that all the agencies that had not paid the minimum wage allowances should write to the National Salaries, Incomes and Wages Commission (NSIWC) through the ministry of aviation for consideration/evaluation.

“The National Salaries, Incomes and Wages Commission (NSIWC) was requested to issue a service-wide circular informing all organisations in the public and private sectors that they are bound to implement the National Minimum Wage of 2019/consequential adjustments,” the minister said.
