The Bank of Ghana (BoG) has reversed its earlier decision to terminate the appointments of nearly 100 staff who were recruited in December 2024, following widespread public concern and an internal policy review.
The affected personnel, who had received termination letters citing unsatisfactory probation outcomes, were initially directed to vacate their posts and return all official items in their possession. The action triggered significant public and institutional feedback, with calls for greater transparency and fairness in the process.
In response to the growing concern, the central bank’s management revisited the matter and has now offered the affected staff a second chance under an extended probationary period. The review was reportedly aimed at ensuring that due process was followed and that the staff involved were fairly assessed.
A source within the Bank noted, “Management believes it is appropriate to reassess performance within a longer timeframe and under enhanced supervision, in order to make a more informed determination.”
Although the Bank has not yet issued an official public statement, the move has been welcomed by labour observers and policy analysts, who view the decision as a step toward restoring confidence in institutional personnel practices.
The reinstated employees are expected to resume work shortly and will undergo further performance evaluation to determine their continued suitability for their roles at the central bank.
