Kenya airways (KQ Ordered to Reinstate, Pay Sacked Workers

-

The Industrial Court has now ordered national carrier Kenya Airways to reinstate over 400 sacked employees.

Justice James Rika ruled that the workers must be reinstated by Tuesday 8am, since their employment was wrongfully terminated. The judge ordered that the workers must be paid all their salaries and allowances since September, when they were laid off.

"The retrenchment was unfair, and the entire process driven by bad faith because no jobs, as KQ alleged, were re-designed as a result of restructuring," the judge ruled.

The judge pointed out that the airline used the restructuring as a scapegoat to fire employees who were involved in trade union activities.

"KQ being the main indigenous air transport in the country, it is not likely that other world players are out there looking for Kenyan air transport employees," the judge observed.

The airline subsequently issued a statement confirming it has been made aware of the court's decision.

"In relation to the ruling made by the Industrial Court sitting in Nairobi on the issue of staff rationalisation programme, Kenya Airways wishes to confirm that it has been made aware of the court's decision. However, our lawyers are studying the ruling and its implications. We shall advice on the next steps in due course," the statement from KQ managing director and CEO Titus Naikuni said

Why Malaysia?

Why Malaysia? The presence of a large number of Chinese passengers on board the doomed flight is being used to strain relations between Communist China and Malaysia, and it may contribute to a future deterioration of their relationship, resulting in increased justification of Chinese presence in the region, and maybe even future Chinese aggression. This may also help explain why a Malaysian plane was targeted, as opposed to an Indonesian plane (Indonesia is already in the hands of the Globalists, and therefore never gets any brinkmanship from Communist China, which is a creation of the Globalists).   Malaysia is probably the only country in the world whose recent leadership has openly criticized the IMF, Israel, the War on Terror and made claims that 9/11 was an Inside Job. Malaysia has a bustling economy, but the Globalists prefer plantation style economies, such as neighbouring Indonesia, which is completely under Globalist control. Since Malaysia cannot b...

According to reports from plane-spotters,   Israel   has an identical   Malaysia Airlines   Boeing 777-200 in storage in   Tel Aviv   since November 2013.

By using the twin aircraft they have in storage, the terror masterminds may have a...

SriLankan Airlines Flight Attendants & Ground Staff Used As Mules to Smuggle Gold

Gold smuggling racketeers have once again commenced using Flight Attendants of   SriLankan Airlines   as mules to smuggle gold into the country. A 27 year old former Mihin Lanka Flight Steward Meewala Arachchige Chanuka, who recently joined SriLankan Airlines after the airlines merged, confessed to Custom Officers when he was apprehended a few days ago, that he was promised a sum of Rs 40, 000 for carrying the 6.5 kilo grams of gold valued at Rs 35 million. This reported apprehension is now been taken very seriously by Customs Officers as in the past certain Flight Attendants of the national carrier were used as mules to assist gold smugglers in various ways to traffic gold into the country. The smuggling syndicates had previously roped in many staff by offering then hefty sums as rewards, especially those that had access to the aircraft. Several staff including Flight Attendants, Catering staff, Cleaning staff and the ramp Bus Drivers were all part of a mafia sty...
