LASPOTECH: THE FACTS ABOUT CONTISS 15 MIGRATION



The agitation for the implementation of Consolidated Tertiary Institution Salary Structure (CONTISS 15) migration by the three Staff Unions is an issue that has thrown the Polytechnic Community into unrest since 2016.

The CONTISS 15 migration is the movement of staff from one salary grade level to the next level provided the staff meets the necessary conditions stipulated by the NBTE  as listed below:
a. Such staff must have been employed before 1st August 2009.
b. Such staff must possess the basic academic/professional or both qualifications applicable to his/her competence in addition to compliance to Institutional policy.
c. Such staff must have spent a minimum of two (2) years on the current position before the year of migration.

The lawlessness of the three (3) Staff  Unions and threats to the lives of members of the Governing Council along with the Principal Officers of the Polytechnic got to a peak that  during a session of the  Governing Council's  meeting;  the Council members were rounded up and locked up at the Board Room with threats  to set ablaze the entire building with the members inside. Charms were freely displayed and urine poured on the heads of elderly Council members sent to appeal to them. Power supply was cut off and all members’ cars vandalised.
