In a recent news release, the National Service Scheme (NSS) of the Republic of Ghana reported a big victory in obtaining government permission for an increase in the monthly allowances for National Service Personnel.
For thousands of military members, who will now enjoy a significant boost in their allowances beginning in January 2023, the decision is excellent news.
The monthly allowance for National Service Personnel has increased under the new approval from GH559.04 to GHE715.57.
The National Service Scheme, the Fair Wages and Salaries Commission, and the Ministry of Finance worked diligently together to achieve this notable improvement.
Additionally, the Controller and Accountant-General were required by the letter to immediately adopt the increased allowance levels, ensuring that service members quickly receive their due benefits.
