The National Labour Commission (NLC) described the industrial action as illegal and advised the workers to call it off before negotiations can resume.
In an interview with Accra-based Joy FM, the chairman of TEWU, Peter Lumor said the strike was called off following discussions between the leadership and members of the group.
