Sarcasm myxxxx. This is true conspiracy to systematically stiffle the owners of this deadhorse and wash wash them clean. Everyother keen dude knows this hoarse is stifled by high wage,creditors(may be restructiuring pay periods with guranteed supplies at a higher cost etc etc,,will the deductions as they are beneficts to employee not fall due one day? My friend thinking is not easy, what of see things as they are ment to be, harder)and all that is gotten at a premium. Now they have seen the sense that they have milked hard enough and the cow is on its death bed. So what do they decide to do, keep the cow well in the ICU to skin it canibalise it while it still kicks. Collusion between the gagged manager and the gagger the employee. This cow must go since nobody is ready to take the bold step and put a torch on the head of the real monster inside here. Crocodile tears my fellow wazuans tu.

@Maka
I thought theirs is a defined contribution scheme. Are you sure it is a provident fund?

Instead of applying cosmetic surgery to dupe everyone, why not layoff employees after sale of planes, paycut should have be done as soon as yesterday. Accepting to uphold the wage bill and defter payments is in itself unethical and boarders to a crime in law. Those who r not ready to get the cut would definitely have to be shown the door. Employment is not a right,it is a privilege to serve in a company so long as your services are required. Redundancy is unacceptable. Their move to withhold legal deduction mistifies the fact that wage bill bill is huge here and the company is struggling to sustain the wage bill.
Its a legal requirement to save for your retirement and not optional.provident fund is such a contribution.

.......hehehehehe.......aiendeshe The Defunct Project Mawingu.....

Mid and top level managers have agreed to stop their contributions to the KQ provident fund...This will release some 450m plus for the year...discussion with other employees still ongoing...duty allowance also stopped...

Finally hits the papers...

I am certain that if we researched how many JVs exist on the NSE this wouldn't be much of a story. We can give Safcom as a example with Vodaphone as technical partner.

So, this one has ran into some headwinds. As a constitution is merely a piece of paper without constitutionalism, then even the best JV with the best airline would not have prevented the following. We can ask Hersi again: Tourism slump hits retrenched hotel employees

Maybe the JV needs to be relooked yet also, it is a lesson on productivity - do more, get more*. A reason why Kenyans/Africans don't book early is they lack the disposable income to tie their money for a long while. It is also the stifling regulatory environment that makes flying a luxury.
