The National Tripartite Committee (NTC) has set Ghana’s National Daily Minimum Wage (NDMW) at GH¢25.04 for 2027 and GH¢28.79 for 2028 following negotiations among the government, employers and organised labour. In a statement issued on Tuesday, November 10, 2026, the Committee said the new rates would take effect on January 1 of their respective years. The agreement introduces a multi-year negotiation framework intended to provide greater predictability in wage determination, support medium-term planning and budgeting, protect workers’ incomes and sustain industrial harmony. “Following extensive consultations and constructive dialogue, the Tripartite Partners have agreed to adopt a multi-year negotiation framework to promote predictability in wage determination,” the statement said.
