Opinion: Employees Are The Cause Of Salary Delays!!! by zedegit: 8:40am On Sep 12, 2021 |
In some organizations and parastatals, there are issues of salary delays running from 1 month to 6 months or more. Workers often keep mute about it, gossip or die in silence while trying to avoid attracting the 'wrath' of their employers or Boss by taking it up with him. This situation is more pronounced in private schools where proprietors use staff salaries for developmental projects while at same time redirecting their attention to more work with promise that they should exercise more patience. These are people who have responsibilities and have to eat. In what ways do you think employees contribute to these salary delays and how can it be curbed? 18 Likes 1 Share |

I don’t think your assertion is right. The level of wickedness of some Employers is beyond reasoning! They know the fear of the unknown is what is keeping workers. My boss then wouldn’t pay and when you think the money will be added to the next salary, Oyo lo wa! That one don go be that. 28 Likes 1 Share |

Employee doesn't contribute anything to salary delay, they surely have no option because of the society factors, speaking against inhumane salary delay will make one a scape goat because there are thousand out there looking for job, so one tend to manage the present & hope for a better one. 6 Likes |

There are labour laws in the country and agencies to monitor and make sure that those laws are being kept by employers but they are all asleep. 10 Likes |

Both emplyers and employees are to blame. While employers are wicked and are willing to delay the peanuts they pay for workloads, the rmployees too are area unproductive and are ready to "eat" the business dry by their stealing habits and other corrupt practices. There is no much difference between ordinary Nigerians an their so called heatless leaders. 4 Likes 1 Share |

I don't understand? Was there no agreement that the salaries be paid monthly? Why would the employer be aware of an enjoyed service but not the obligation to pay? The problem with employees may be that of moral understanding with employer. The employer should not over enjoy it. The wages of a laborer is due to him before the sweat drys abeg. Myer: My opinion is that employers should not be reminded of their obligations. 7 Likes |

The main issue here is excessive labour force. So when you as an employee try to complain, you can easily be booted out and another jobless person will be ready and even begging to fill your space. Imagine that despite the fact that private schools pays teachers 10-15k per month despite all the stress and work load, there are people who will still beg to have the job. Take a look at the banking industry. There are banks that pays staff that performs core banking jobs 40-80k per month, despite working from 7am-8pm. One can't complain, cos if the bank sack you, someone will be willing to accept same work load for less. That's the problem.... As long as there is excessive labour force, employers will continue to rip off people. Just imagine that there is scarcity of labour, and most firms find it difficult to get a candidate that they can employ. Won't they make the working condition better so as to attract and keep staff. And before you start blaming regulatory agencies, is there any agencies that do their work in Nigeria. Even the all mighty CBN that is supposed to checkmate banks don't do it, how much more all these useless FG MDAs. It all boils down to economic situation. 5 Likes |

As an employer, employees has got nothing to do with delay in salary... How I work, once it's 10th of a new month, I give directive to the HR to prepare staff's payroll for the month and before 20th all process z been done and relevant dept like finance n operations av done their bit to ensure salaries are paid as at when due. The last time I was out of the state and there was a delay which led to Salary delay to the following month, the HR n oda heads of dept got queries with immediate apologies to all staff's. Staff welfare is key/paramount and as such, salaries should be paid as at when due cos that's the primary reason why employees signed for the job. Happy Sunday and wish u guys a productive week ahead. Stay blessed. 28 Likes 1 Share |

I partially stand with you on this. The Labour law here in Nigeria is so weak to the extent that 85% of employer's don't comply and no one to penalize or enforce it instead of that Labour Union personnel do see it as a source of making their own pocket heavy. Also most employees don't even know their right, some that know it are scared of loosing their job as the unemployment rate in the country is high so will rather keep mute than exercising such rights |

omowolewa: OP's point is that Employees encourage the salary delays when they do not take necessary actions such as voicing out or any other form of protest legally allowed. They keep mute out of fear of losing their job. 2 Likes |

Most employees like that took up their job due to economical pressure, and at such, have no passion for the job. Aside that, it takes good moral and ethical orientation for an employer to pay in due time without unnecessary imbroglio. |

If you don't have the spirit of giving, you don't have any reason to own a business, much more, employ. Presently where I But above all, this person is one of the most cheerful givers on earth. Your salary is paid once you're due, food is there for you to eat and a conducive space for you to sleep. This same person can just gather all the staff and start sharing money for them for doing nothing other than their usual jobs. My point is, it still boils down to the person's notion on giving. Some people are just naturally stingy. These are the type that see paying of salaries as a favour to the worker. Last last, we go de alright. 3 Likes |

baylord101:It's this same mentality that has kept us from getting what is right. Omoh I no send o. I walked out of a 50k job last two months because of the insults and stress from the job, my boss (a Governor's brother) withheld our salaries at will and was always threatening me that I don't know how many people want my job. Because he is a millionaire.. Lol.. The person that I brought on the job resigned the next month, the person that they brought to replace me stayed for two weeks and left, till now no-one has replaced me. The drivers, all of us got angry and left, it was a mass exodus. I learnt he has stopped withholding salaries and had started treating workers right after that incident. The moment we stop taking nonsense in this country, we start moving forward. 5 Likes |

Some employers are just naturally wicked & evil, they think they are smart but just evil. Someone is sacrificing his time & resources to make ur business a success, d least u could do is to pay him on TIME, and any delay should come with an apology & reasons for it. Even compensation when necessary. If ur employee has to even ask for his salary or even afraid to, then know that, d project u are doing with his hard earned money will just led u to ruin. PLEASE EMPLOYERS, RESPECT UR WORKERS & PAY THEM ON TIME! 6 Likes 1 Share |

As a business owner,most salary delays are caused by employee not the employers,when you tell your employee to produce certain quality of product but at the end they product substandard product because of lack of concentration there by chasing all the customers away Where do you expect the employer to get money to pay wages and salary? Do you expect him to get loan to pay salary? Infact I use salary delay to punish them sometimes.its what it’s,you can’t produce nonsense and use bad product to chase customers away then expect me to pay salary |
