The Controller and Accountant General’s Department (CAGD) has withheld the payment of the September 2022 salaries of some public sector workers due to a mismatch of employees’ bank names on the Government of Ghana payroll.

Others affected are workers with invalid bank account numbers.

In a statement, the CAGD said the decision to suspend the payment of the salaries is a result of ongoing “quality assurance and other validation processes”.

It advised employees whose bank names are mismatched to report to the payroll coordination unit of CAGD at block A room 32 with documents under a cover from the MDA confirming they are at post.

Items requested include [appointment letter, current posting letter, national identification card, pay slips for the last three months and a voided cheque leaflet of bank account].

“For employees with invalid bank account numbers, they are supposed to submit their correct account numbers to the PPSs for update”, the release added.
