Annual leaves are earned and not a favour granted by managers. Companies/Management should ensure

1) Leave calendars are maintained
2) Managers are pushed to plan and execute leave plans
3) Employees are pushed to utilize leaves and are not disturbed during a break
4) Appropriate delegation is in place such that the work is not impacted
5) Leadership promotes a culture of appropriate work life balance

Don’t hesitate to ask for leaves. It’s your right. Just make sure that the assigned work is sorted in advance and the leaves are well planned such that a back up can take care.

high rate of unemployment has resulted to:

1. management bullying their employees.
it is generally believed in Nigeria that if you quit a job, you will be replaced before you get home.
this is due to the high number of unemployed people in the society.
this gives many employers the confidence to treat their employees as slaves.
not minding the effect of the job on one's health.

2.many job seekers not looking into the welfare part of their employment contract.
after months or years of being unemployed, being called for an interview alone is a testimony.
when offered the job, the excitement blinds many from taking a deep view of the contract.
even when some persons peruse the contract and see inhuman clauses, the fear of going back to be unemployed for months will prevent them from negotiating further or not taking the job.

it is what it is.
