John K. Tettehgah, secretary general of the Trade Union Council of Ghana, who recently studied Histadrut structure and operations in Israel, told a huge union meeting here that the new TUC structure, modelled on the Histadrut, would bring great benefits to Ghanian workers.
Mr. Tettehgah said that under this plan conditions would be improved for workers while at the same time the unions would be in a position to establish industries and social institutions. He denied that centralization of Ghanian unions would deprive individual workers of their freedom, citing the Israeli example.
