Mahama Lists 12 Key Businesses To Benefit From His 24-Hour Economy Policy

Ex-President John Dramani Mahama, on Sunday, elaborated on his ambitious 24-hour economy policy.

The presidential candidate for the National Democratic Congress, in his presentation telecast online, said the policy aims to address Ghana’s pressing issues of youth unemployment and production deficits.

To him, the 24-hour economy initiative is a game-changer stating “the current eight-hour working system is inadequate for creating the necessary production, productivity, and well-paying jobs needed to revive Ghana’s economy”.

Under Mahama’s plan, businesses and government institutions would operate 24 hours per 7 days in a week, employing a three-shift system.

He therefore underscored 12 key industries, services, and sectors captured in his 24-hour economy policy.

Mr. Mahama listed:

1. Ports and Harbour Services
2. Customs Services
3. DVLA Services
4. Agro-Processing Factories
5. Manufacturing Industries
6. Construction Companies
7. Sanitation and Waste Management Services
8. Financial Institutions
9. Healthcare Services
10. Community Pharmacy Care
11. Tourism, Creative Arts, and Entertainment
12. Retail Centres
