In the thick of the lockdown issued in different countries around the world, a lot of active employees lost their jobs and found it hard to survive, as a result of a lack of social protection.

In this case, what does social protection for work employees mean? According to the International Labor Organization, social protection means providing workers with income security in the transition between jobs, during periods of illness, disability, maternity, and retirement, as well as helping to compensate for low earnings and provide access to health care.

While commenting on the way forward for the work environment in a post COVID-19 world, Sharan Burrow, the General Secretary of the International Trade Union Confederation, said Solidarity and sharing and deciding on how you protect people – both within nations and globally – is absolutely critical at the moment.

Although landing good jobs are not easy these days, it is good that as more countries ease lockdowns to stem impending recession, every potential employee should endeavor to look out for jobs in organizations and companies that are actually concerned with welfare of its workers.

Aside from applying to jobs and landing job interview invites, you should ask what the employee package is like, especially for those who want to work in the private sector. Do they have welfare packages for employees, in the case of a pandemic, illness, disability, and the like?

Although salaries are important, these are also salient issues that must be handled by any serious employer. Avoid working for people who only do the barest minimum in exchange for the labor you render for the growth and expansion of their business.

At Lingo Africa, the foremost human capital development platform in Abuja, Nigeria, we have always advised our clients never to see a job as a favor bestowed on them by the employer. It is a trade-by-barter relationship, which is why you must fight to get all that is supposed to be entitled to you for your time and effort. This way, social protection remains top of mind.

The more people demand for what they should get in the workplace, the more employers will rise up to meet the demands. If you are going to be working longer hours than usual, you should get over time. Also, if you are exposed to some sort of risk while discharging your duties, it is only fair that your employer compensates you for that.

Anything else is modern slavery.
