Minister, Managers Disagree Over Laying Off Workers.
(From The Post (Cameroon) - AAGM)
Byline: Joe Dinga Pefok
The Minister of Labour and Social Security, Prof. Robert Nkili, and general managers of big companies in the country, have disagreed over the laying off workers by companies in the name of restructuring or implementing the collective conventions of the companies.
The occasion was the General Assembly of the cartel of big business operators in Cameroon, GICAM, which held in Douala on June 28.
The Minister was a special guest to the occasion, which focused on the theme: "Salaries and Industrial Policies in Cameroon."
The Minister regretted that an article in the reform of the Cameroon Labour Code in June 1992 gave employers the power to recruit and lay off workers at will.
He saw this article as absurd, arguing that it is inadmissible for the government to allow Cameroonians to be at the mercy of employers who can recruit and lay them off when they like. He lashed out at the way the management of some companies are implementing the collective conventions of their companies, by using restructuring as a pretext to lay off workers.
