The Working Condition At Huawei Nigeria: Reason Behind #HuaweiNigeria On Twitter by MissTechy(f): 8:07pm On Dec 04, 2015
For those who are not aware, someone raised an issue on Twitter with regards to the working condition at Huawei, see the tweet pic below.



So I asked a friend who has been working there for some time now to verify these claims and she gave me a breakdown of what has been happening.

ISSUE ONE: THE OFFICIAL WORKING HOURS

According to her, Huawei held a survey where they made employees choose which working hours they'd prefer, the majority of Nigerians selected 8:00 am to 5 pm while the Chinese counterpart chose 8:30 to 5:30 pm. She claims Huawei did this to help deal with the traffic issues.

ISSUE TWO: DINING HOURS

Apparently, Huawei gives a 1-hour break in between work hours but some employees violate their break period hence the reason it was raised in the mail.

See a full mail addressed to all workers.

Dear colleagues,

The local canteen has been redecorated, it is delightful to see a more exquisite and cozy canteen back into use. But sorry to tell, recently we found some of the colleagues were still eating in canteen after 8:30am.

According to our Work Attendance and Clocking Regulation , working hours for non-Chinese staff start from 8:00am and end at 5:00pm.
Taking the Nigerian traffic jam into consideration, the serving of breakfast will end at 9:00am on Monday and 8:30am on other working days.

There will be random attendance check in the morning, and employees who go against these rules will be asked to register the ID number as well as give reason of violation by HR colleagues. HR will check with employee's LM afterwards, and violation without appropriate reasons will lead to penalties accordingly.


Now that we have heard the other side of the story, what do you think?

1. They serve breakfast. Wow.

2. The work time for Non-Chinese is the same as Chinese.. Have you seen a Chinese Man working before. They work like machines.

3. They said its not allowed to have a meal in the kitchen at work times ~ meaning you can go out and have your 1hour break lunch or whatever, without staying above that time.

Is there suppose to be an issue because I ain't seeing any?

Just lost my uncle about few hours ago.
God rest his soul.
The life of the dead lives in the memories of the living.
I will always remember him for his meekness.
Sleep on Mr. Christopher Ojo.


Pls help pray for the happy repose of his soul.
