Female workers are the most affected.
“Greetings Mr Nyakundi.
Thanks for the good job you do to raise issues affecting the less fortunate people.
Some time back you raised an issue concerning Capital Club East Africa in Westlands.
The club continues to mistreat staff, some are depressed and quitting jobs.
In the HR department, the same lady who has gone to bed with the management can’t do anything while staff keep on suffering.
The local chef by the name Caleb Odera, who manipulated his way up to be the head chef despite not having enough merit, is very abusive to the kitchen staff, more so ladies.
Three ladies have already resigned, and several men left because of the way he mistreats them.
They don’t pay staff dues even after they leave after serving them for more than 6 years.
Please highlight this.
Thank you,” the source writes.
When any of the affected staff members attempt to seek an audience over the inhumane state of affairs, the Asian GM immediately serves them termination letters.
