I just had to post this. I hope every employer and employee can learn from it and put their acts together and fulfil their obligations without prejudice..

I know because our people are far backward, even some so called educated people wouldn't dare learn anything outside their main, It is a bad idea doing that. Man must continue learning, it is the only way to keep whatever is Natural about man in existence, we must evolve.

Ooops sorry for taking your through my brooding. OK I want you any Employee to understand this due to a question raised so many times on Nairaland.

In Nigeria, If your boss strikes you, then he/she has committed assault and you need to file charges. Calmly call the police and file a report.

The police are likely to come and take a statement. If there is a great deal of evidence (mark on your face, a cut, witnesses to the event, etc) your boss will be arrested and taken to jail. You may be terminated; however most companies wouldn't dare to immediately fire an employee who was struck by a member of the management team. They would instead start an investigation, which would likely lead to the termination of the manager.

Even if the police do not arrest your employer, contact your HR department immediately. Tell them what occurred and strongly request that action be taken. Also, ask for the remainder of the day for personal reasons and contact an attorney. You may have the makings of a civil suit against both your boss as well as the company.

Do NOT hit your boss back. The urge to do so will be great, but you need to be the mature and professional person in this situation that your supervisor was not. Call the authorities and let them handle this.

Do you remember that beat fm staff that was beat black and blue by olisa adibua??
After all the fanfares, the staff got sacked and olisah walked free. Things are up-side-down in Nigeria.
If anyone hits you, please hit them so hard that they faint. Its called self defense.
If u like call police from now till next year, they will not cone for a minor issue such as assault. Yes, its a minor issue in Nigeria.
If you venture to the police station, you might even be arrested gan....

Guy if ur oga slap u,better smile n move ahead.

U think here is America.

I totally agree , Even if it's a MAJOR mistake, no boss has the right to slap you, that's an ASSAULT dude.

There was a time an IT programmer for an America Airline (can't remember the name) made a mistake on the airlines website and all local tickets (within states) were being sold for $1.. trust the social media, people started telling people, everyone was booking even those that had no intention to travel. When the board found out the rectified the glitch and all they could do in line with employees rights is to terminate the Programmer, they lost thousands of dollars but it was termed "an employee mistake" finish, a simple verbal assault and the employees would have sued.

No matter the magnitude your boss doesn't even have the right to SHOUT on you.
Though I need to add that's it's a different ball game in Nigeria. We have no law, we have no employeee right, so I guess if you have money you sue, else you resign.

think twice.
what of, after all the case then they sack u from the company?

tundeayo2020:
Slap him back twice if possible






Take this advice at your own peril

so if nah me,u go slap me twice?

jidesp:


Well if you try it, your claim might not be justified because you retaliated. This is in accordance with the English Maxim "He who comes to equity must come with clean hands"

It is better to know your right.

there are som rights that u can't enforce due to the position of the person who donate the slap, he will slap u and call police to arrest u & remember "where two equity are equal the first in time prevail"

INTROVERT:
What if it's a major mistake??
Costing the company huge amounts of money time etc

What if it had given company a huge profit? No be still your same salary dem go still pay you? No excuse in discharging your duty should land you a dirty slap. What happens to query and disciplinary committee? INTROVERT be guided ooo!

Chukwutobi:
My boss has no right to slap me! if he tries it, he will pay for it.

Just as OP said, he and the organization will pay dearly for it in court especially if the organization does nothing about it!

I'm sure ur boss dnt want to treat u bad by only recharging ur face wit only a slap and not calling police to keep u off for a period of time. this is Niger any tin can happen wen man still de fight for gud livin.

eleko1:
Simply maintain ur cool/say sorry sir/ma.Nothing do u

And if He/She keeps doing it?

chax100:


What if it had given company a huge profit? No be still your same salary dem go still pay you? No excuse in discharging your duty should land you a dirty slap. What happens to query and disciplinary committee? INTROVERT be guided ooo!

Guided

well it depends on how you package your self in an office,i remember my boss who is short tempered once offered me query I went back him and told him that I need few days off because my mum wants me to bring the letter to her in the village, he asked who my mother is and I told him she is the greatest jujuwoman in my whole tribe, the guy collected the letter and tore it infront of me.after that day everybody they give me chance including him

Actually an English translation of a Latin maxim.

This is terrible. Why are you promoting academic dishonesty? The implication of this "consulting" firm you advertise is that more Nigerian students would graduate and be incompetent. Why further help ruin Nigeria when you could come up with a better business to help grow Nigeria?

Na wa o.

Antarch:
It is a difficult situation to be in. Even though, on paper, the appropriate thing to do is contact the police and file charges against the aggressor, it might not necessarily be the most prudent thing to do - especially if you really need that job and have no foreseeable or viable alternative(s).

The entire socio-legal system in Nigeria leaves much to be desired, and at the end of the day, one often requires a great deal of savoir faire to avoid or manage many unpleasant situations.

For instance, if President Buhari slaps V. President Osibanjo, what should Osibanjo do?

The police would NOT do anything if your boss bribes them. A girl falsely accussed my friend of rape, because he dumped her (she went to police to report) after police invited him and he paid them some money, they called the girl to station and SLAPPED her till she confessed that she was lying... bottom line - money influenced their decision.

Then the victim shud examine/check himself/herself..Somebody can't just wake up one fine morning and decide to slap U.Respect ur boss(gud morning sir/ma.And do ur work/assignment accordingly).U can only be slapped if u work in one of those Indians/Chinkos factory.

And if He/She keeps doing it?

I don't think you followed the story very much. The case never made it to trial because the guy didn't want to anymore. I presumed they had a backdoor discuss where a compensation or an agreement was reached. And I am very sure he would have signed a confidentiality agreement that would limit him from discussing the issue any further after been compesated.

Now, your assumption based on the fact that Nigeria is still a very backward nation is a reflection that you would rather break the law than see the right things done. Let me also clear one fact, before I made my post I had read a lot of issues relating to what I quoted and had to come with this conclusion because not so many Nigerians reads the constitution and what it stands for.

Ok let me help you on that. The Constitution itself limits the power which sovereign authority has, in simpler terms, it gives people it is applicable to a means to reflect on their right and not live in fear of being abused.

Nigeria is a country, not an attitude, So please, enough lecture about telling me this is Nigeria, because if you keep saying that, you can as well open the dictionary to check what civil or democracy means. We have gotten so many things wrong and I don't blame many people for thinking this way.

@defemidefemi to the extent of 0.025%, I agree with you, and the reason is because The Law itself has several limitations which powerful or influential people takes advantages of. But It doesn't change the fact that we should stand for our right, and also Law is changing in Nigeria, particularly lagos, there are lawyers who are willing to go extra-miles just to see justice done probono.

Also you cited an English Maxim "where two equity are equal the first in time prevail". In a case like this, this is a very wrong Maxim to cite because Equity isn't equal because the employee didn't retaliate. You should be careful when you quote maxims, it could totally crumble your case the very instance it begins. Also if you read the title correctly, I stated "Minor Mistakes", Equity cannot justify the Boss action based on Minor Mistakes because by slapping his employee, he/she has first Violated the employee's fundamental human rights as a citizen of Nigeria, also could also be charged with assault.

[b]Here are also few lines from the Nigerian Labour Act 1990


46. (1) Any employer who neglects or ill-treats any worker whom he has contracted to employ in accordance with this Part of this Act shall be guilty of an offence, and on conviction shall be liable to a fine not exceeding N500 or to imprisonment for a period not exceeding one year, or to both.



(2) Where an employer or his agent is convicted of any offence under subsection (1) of this section, the convicting court shall report the case to the Minister, who may by notice in the Federal Gazette cancel any contract into which the employer or his agent may have entered in accordance with this Part of this Act.

(3) Any cancellation under subsection (2) of this section shall have effect from the date of the publication of the relevant notice.

(4) Every worker whose contract has been cancelled under subsection (2) of this section shall be maintained and conveyed to his place of abode (together with any members of his family who have accompanied him) at the expense of the Federal Government, and all sums reasonably expended upon the maintenance and conveyance, together with any wages due to the worker under the cancelled contract, may be recovered from the employer or his agent by deduction from any deposit or security given under section 24 (7) of this Act or by civil proceedings.

(5) The cancellation of a contract under this section shall not prevent the taking of legal proceedings in respect of the contract under this or any other enactment.[/b]

To be honest with you, even something as small as a pinch for doing a minor wrong could be considered assault. One more thing, if you report a case like this to the police and they turn you down or beat you in the process, don't get angry, get a phone or an audio or video recording devices and read your fundamental human rights as stated, word for word in the constitution relating to the issue at that instance to the Police officers present. And If the police officers then say anything contrary or beats you after you read your rights, then they are non-verbally expressing supremacy over the provision of the 1999 constitution of Nigeria which is contrary to Sect 1(1) that states that[b] "The Constitution is supreme and its provisions shall have binding force on the authorities and persons throughout the Federal Republic of Nigeria".
[/b]


@INTROVERT Whether Major or Minor mistakes, it still doesn't change the fact that the law was broken. By Slapping an employee. While this is done, the employee could be held for different charges for letting something that costs the company huge loss happened.

Courts treats cases step by step and not bundled so as to give a fair hearing.

if he slaps u.dont tell anyone or act untill after 24 hours.this option may earn you accelerated promotion.trust me.

thanks I hope patient enough

It is very bad to assume such negative results. To be honest, the fear of the tables being turned against you alone is not sufficient enough to suppress your fundamental human rights. Take the step first and whatever happens next should be the judge of what next to do again.

Elgaxton:

Oh you got it all wrong, the boss is probably a friend to an officer, not the entire police force. So I'm guessing the same police officer who is a friend has a boss who probably hates his officers doing the wrong things
