Kenya: Employers' lobby opposes govt.s' proposal to guarantee workers payment after layoffs.

"Employers oppose plan to pay workers job loss cash"

Employers have opposed plans to offer jobless claims to laid-off workers through an unemployment contributory fund and instead want firms paid to keep redundant employees on the payroll. Federation of Kenya Employers (FKE) argues giving cash to workers who lose jobs was not sustainable in a country where formal employment opportunities were increasingly thinning, pushing those squeezed out of employment into informal ventures. The lobby group is instead proposing the creation of an Employment Insurance Fund, which will give cash-strapped firms funds to enable them to keep workers on payroll during unforeseen crises until the economy stabilises.
