BusinessRe: Gtbank Vs Innoson At The Supreme Court: What Really Happened by smithsammy(m):
This is a big drama. Although it is not strange because it happens in the business world every day. I know they will sort themselves out. Beyond the money involved, what the two firms are trying to protect is their names, or might I say 'images', or might I yet say 'brands'.

Let's just cross our hands and see how things unfold.

Jobs/VacanciesIsn't The Currently Trending HR Outsourcing System A Subtle Mode Of Slavery? by smithsammy(op): 2:36pm On Jun 06, 2018
Outsourcing business functions to third party firms has become a trend in Nigeria. The field that has taken the lion's share is Human Resource Management (HRM). It seems some firms don't want to manage this function themselves anymore. They prefer contracting it to third parties.

Although there are different agreements that could be reached. One is contracting an HR firm to help your firm source and recruit talents and the contract closes when the former has recruited the talent and they've resumed at your firm (as full staff of your firm).

Another one (which is the most trending and most damaging to employees' career IMO) is firm entering into agreement with outsourcing HR firm to supply them staff for an agreed period of time. These employees remain the staff of the outsourcing firm. The firm they are deployed to would pay the outsourcing firm which would, in turn, pay the employees but that's after they have deducted some percentage which could sometimes be as high as 20%.

This, to me, is a big and subtle act of slavery. Can you imagine how much the outsourcing HR firms are making every month on all people they deployed to firms?

Now, one critical question I would want to ask is: are the companies contracting these outsourcing HR firms satisfied with making workers suffer -- with low pay and without career direction or promotion potential -- to the benefit of the outsourcing firms?

Please what career directions are there for an employee who's employed by an outsourcing firm and deployed to, say a bank, and whose career in the bank can halt should the contract between the bank and outsourcing firm seize?

And what promotion potential or career progressions are there for people working for outsourcing firms?

At least, as real staff of a firm, you're sure of promotion and pay rise when you reach a career milestone in the firm. What is the fate of an employee working in the same firm but is a staff to an outsourcing firm?

Although, when we look at it critically, HR outsourcing firms are creating value to their clients (firms). They provide you with employees whom you don't need to disturb yourself providing employees' benefits for. They are just like robots. You're not obligated to promote them or plan for their pension. Their career development is not your problem, too. The only thing you owe them is their monthly salary which is always nothing close to what you normally should pay your own (full) staff.

What does all this translates to for the firm? It translates to lower cost; and that's the value the outsourcing HR firms provide them.

On the right note, any firm that doesn't care about the career and standard of living of her employees but only wants to make money and mindlessly reduce cost is not a good firm IMO.

So, those who are working in the system already (working for ousourcing firms) should please enlighten us.

Is there something we are missing in this HR outsourcing job thing?

This is very possible and I am guessing you plan to use some of the proceeds from the sale to do this. Well in practice, there is very little trust in the real estate business and to tell someone to pay first then you'll do the needful....well bottom line its very doable. The land has to be serious prime real estate sha and you may just need to do a little extra work in finding the right buyer.
what do you mean by 'serious prime real estate' sir? Yes, we plan to use proceed from the sale.

First you need to get the consent of everyone who has a stake in this cos they are the ones who'll share the money. Be transparent o. Cos if you with hold any info, one person can scatter the whole deal.
Get a lawyer to advise you on laws regarding exhuming a dead body and property laws.
Once you have satisfied the requirements and have exhumed and reburied the body elsewhere, the land is ready to be sold
You can call me on 07035958148 to see how my company DPKAY homes can help to mak
couldn't the house be sold and the body exhumed immediately after; because the plan is to buy and build a house for the woman and she would be buried there. All this are to be done from her share in the sale. Her children will take charge of the house and whatever remains in her share after the house is built for her. Mind you, the house will be built in new site.

Hi property pros in the house,

It is my pleasure reaching you all at this time.

Please I need your advice on this.

There is this family house by the major road in one of the big commercial hubs in Lagos. This land would be great for bank because there are many banks on the road already.

Now, this house was built by my paternal granma who died about 35 years ago. She had six children. Several attempts have been made by one of grandma's children to sell the house but he's always been unlucky to get into 419s. The fraudsters would have actually made away with the property save for other siblings who needed to cosign documents but had never wanted to sell and would never sign.

Now, the family has really expanded and these siblings are already aging. The only way forward now is to sell the house and everyone should go and invest it on something that would help them more instead of the peanuts they currently get as rents (The property should sell between 60 and 80 millon).

But there's one challenge. Recently, one of the siblings (a single mother) died and people who were with her just carried her corpse to her mum's house and buried. They had even buried her in the house before they infomed her siblings that she had died.

So, like I said, the siblings are aging and they have children's children already. The structure on the house is just face me and face you, making the potential of the land to be overly underused. It will be more useful if a firm like bank procures it and it will ultimately boost the area's economy.

So how does one go about this, not forgetting the person that was buried there?

Thanks in anticipation.

Seun, lalasticlala, please help push to front page.

And i, on my part, had stayed my essay since i wasn't cocksure i was going to be brooked to participate alone given past precedent in the previous editions. I don't know if there can be a slight change of the date. Trust me, i hate asking for too much. But given the circumstance, i'm compelled to. Please.

Go through those essays( Team 5, Team 1) again, then you will have a rethink.. To me, the work by eduntee is quite better than that of iamdejman, but the result ain't reflecting that!!
I don't think the number of likes garnered by partcipants' essay is objective enough to judge their work. Remember, some schools have users here on NL than others. Only few of those likes are borne out of objectivit.

I think in as much as the participants are honing their skills in order to deliver essays with more quality, it is only fair that the judges do same. Having gone through some results, I'm at a loss how much some of the chosen judges know about the art of argument. I'm almost tempted to think bias!

Go through those essays again with an unbiased mindset, evaluate the number of Likes each essay has received, and you should understand what I mean...

I think it's hightime you chose only past winners and runners up of this competition as Judges..
I agree with you

Language for the past 10years at least cant

My friends speak pidgin, try to correct them
