Kenya Faces Wave of Crippling
Strikes
LOW PAY and job insecurity are fuelling discontent
in Kenya's public sector, with key utility providers
facing threats of industrial action that the government
appears unprepared to address or resolve.
The discontent is largely said to arise from recent
selective salary reviews for teachers, judicial officers,
the police force, university lecturers, permanent
secretaries and Members of Parliament while employees
in state corporations' and on the central government
payroll have been left out.
