The decision to end the strike was reached following a voting process conducted under the supervision of the National Executive Committee (NEC) of the association on September 4, 2024.
Members of CETAG had embarked on the industrial strike from August 1, 2023, to impress upon the government to adhere to their negotiated conditions of service.
