Workers protest over impending unfair termination

This is after the management of Kongoni River Farm  issued them  with letters on a three months’ unpaid leave only to declare them redundant when the leave ended.

The 140 workers claim that the management of the farm scaled-down operations three months ago at the farm located near Likii village.

 The management cites reduced flower export business due to Covid-19 and consequently sent them on leave.

The workers stormed the flower farm seeking to have a meeting with the management that did not materialize.

 Farm’s Human Resource Manager Charles Kamau said the employees had been declared redundant.

Those who wish to remain  will be engaged on a temporary basis as casuals, said the management.
