NATIONAL SERVICE SCHEME SECURES GOVERNMENT APPROVAL FOR UPWARD
ADJUSTMENT OF MONTHLY ALLOWANCES FOR NATIONAL SERVICE PERSONNEL
1. The Management of the National Service Scheme has secured government approval for upward
adjustment of monthly allowances for National Service Personnel from GH¢559.04 to
GH¢715.57, with effect from January, 2023.
2. The approval, which was contained in a letter dated 18th July, 2023 and signed by the Deputy
Minister for Finance, Hon. Abena Osei-Asare (MP), was as a result of series of engagements
between National Service Scheme, Fair Wages and Salaries Commission, and the Ministry of
Finance.
3. The letter also directed The Controller and Accountant-General to give effect to the new levels
of the personnel allowances.
4. In effect, all National Service Personnel who are currently in active service are entitled to arrears
for the difference in the upward adjustment from January, 2023, and would be paid accordingly.
5. Management therefore urges all National Service Personnel to exercise patience as the necessary
administrative processes are being concluded to have all the arrears duly paid.
Thank you.
