How Do You Handle Unnecessary Charges And Debits At Work Place by gabe1234(m): 8:46pm On Dec 12, 2022
Greetings to everyone in the house...
Please I would appreciate it if the mods push this to fp.

I've been working as a senior supervisor in an organization...a big restaurant precisely with multiple outlets in Lagos (name withheld) ...I've been on the job since 2019.
I started with a salary of #60,000 but currently earning #75,000.
As at the time of typing this,I got my complete salary only three times for the few years of working with the organization.

If you're few minutes late,#10,000 will be deducted from your salary... little offenses that could even be looked away would attract debits of 5k,3k and so on...
The unfortunate part of it is that all these charges will be deducted from your salary at the end of the month.

I often end up with a salary of 30k - 40k every month instead of the initial 75k.
At some point a staff was charged 25k for missing as cake order of #7,500.The CEO of the organization has over 90% involvement in these Acts.
In my opinion,debits or charges for Minor offenses like lateness should be not be more than #500.. infact no employee should be charged above 1k except if he or she damages company assets or commit a very serious offense.
Majority of the employees including myself are tired of these and we seek legal actions.

I feel this is inhumane.. at this point I intend to quit the job at the end of the month but I'll need your candid advice on these;

*Is it proper for employees to be penalized heavily for little offenses?
*Can legal actions be taken against these act?
*If legal actions can be taken.... please how do I go about it?


I thank you all in advance for your candid advices.

With all these changes you still have your sanity intact in that gat damn work?? You try ooo...
In my opinion, the best way to stop these changes is to start up your own little business, watch it grow to reasonable extent then, tender your resignation later. I had tried it, and have nothing to regret at all. In fact, I no fit work for person for 9ja again dey answer sir'sir
