Happycharles:
When I saw this thread and the kinda post there, I gave up already. I even thought I have seen it all in my office. Kai people are in shit ooo.

I have worked for private company since 2020, It is from one level of shege to another. First no employment or appointment letter. You can be an admin today and wake up tomorrow doing an IT guy work, the next time, he will call u on sunday to go come to office just to buy food for him. Like am his wife.

Cos of salary, and his numerous sanctions that ensures that u dont receive your full salary, I have resigned more than 4 times, at each time he will increases the salary. But men there is no specific opening and closing time. Your guy can go to work by 8PM and come back by 10PM and after working strenuously for that number of hr for sometimes straight 2- 3 days, you might think you deserve rest. The man will strenuously engage u again. It is a vicious cycle that never ends.

The man has 5 companies, and I work in the five at the same time. Trekking my life out under Abuja sun meeting the demands of the whole company as at necessary. He provided car to make the work easy, but any little scratch the kinda embarrassment and pay u will pay to rectify it, u will regret driving the car in the first place. That is after begging for fuel money ooo.

But here is the good side of it all. I have horned my skills to provide some digital services in his office under his nose, without his knowledge. The provisions for moving about everytime, I have used to solve my own personal problem tooo. Even as I seek for Job.

One day, I applied for a job, IT one, the woman saw my CV and decided that even though I am not altogether qualified for the work she will create a supervisory role for me to work with her. But guess what! She is a Spinster, and the way she was arrogant, i told her I can't work with her cos she is a woman. The lady was very crazy. But men, I care not!

once worked with a microfinance institute in
IB CITY. with its headquarters at Ilorin. The place is a hell on earth to work. The owner is a tyrant, force staff to buy share from the company which equals to deduction with no return on. whatever share bought, workers are forced to prayer meetings for like 10 days in a month at the head office after the close of work, lateness to prayer meetings attracts curses and fine, there was a time some staff were t[b][/b]old to go and pay #50 in another state because they came late, staff are coerced to pay for defaulting client.

There was a time he was having a meeting with the staff and he said the staffs are smelling.
His list of attrocities are endless.
Very useless MFI and mfB

Any company that always ve open vacancy like bck 2 bck no b better place. U see say their vacancy no dey ever end. RUN.

Exactly, that's one of the ways to deduce toxic workplaces.
There's usually high rate of staff turn over as staffs usually have to leave regularly.
Once I see repitition of same vacancy multiple times within few months, I know that Organization is a No No.

Trashy story... You all are cowards. Demand for his sack through a very solid channel.
Get yourself together after work and hold a meeting. Report to ministry of labour with evidences and witness.

If only it was this easy, because we tried and held a protest but some of the staffs involved in the protest are still victimised till now. I would appreciate if you can point out the solid channels

But how and why do you guys put up with all this nonsense in the first place?

Does it mean that you guys have got ZERO options with regards to where to find work?

How much is the beast of a man even paying for people to be putting up with such nonsense?

I just can't understand why some people will be okay with being treated as slaves, even in their own country.

People will put up with anything to feed themselves.. The salary is 40-60k

If only Nigeria was like the usa with working labour laws that even private companies have to follow. That your company is supposed to have received many lawsuits.

If only, I don't think one can even sue them in the absent of an employment/appointment letter

I think you have to take up the case with a very very strong lawyer.

Labor laws state 40hrs/week of work, any hr outside that should be regarded as overtime and paid accordingly. So you have a good case with a strong labor lawyer.

Does the company not have a handbook?

No they don't, and it's not even a small company. It's Fouani Nigeria Limited

It would be best to get a lawyer but if you can't, just walk into the National Industrial Court and ask to see the registrar. Tell them you want to sue your employer and they will give you some forms and guide you on what steps to take next.

You can definitely sue without an employment letter provided you have other evidence of your employment.
