An employer has been ordered to pay Ksh 250,000 for refusing to show a former employee what they said about her in a background check. She believed a negative reference cost her a new job. When she asked for answers, the employer hid behind “confidential.” The ODPC said no. If you talk about someone, they have a right to see it.
Employers must now choose their words carefully. If you can’t say it to someone’s face, don’t whisper it to their next boss. Employees are finally protected from secret sabotage. And workplaces must become more honest. Usinichomee na sijui.
Dear @ntsa_kenya,
This brave gentleman believes Kenya must be a country of order and discipline.
At Allsops, drama unfolded when a matatu driver (KCA 527T) invaded a pedestrian walkway. The man stood his ground and refused to give way.
This driver needs JESMA 006 immediately.
Kindly also identify the matatu tout who was verbally abusing this citizen for doing the right thing.
