Workers at Fubest Supermarket, a Chinese owned business in Kasama District, Northern Province, have turned down tools demanding improved working conditions of service.
The workers say they do not know their conditions of service and that they knock off late and are not provided with transport or overtime allowances.
The workers said in Kasama today that management at the company has refused to issue them contract letters despite working for two years.
“We get very low salaries of between K800 and K1, 200 per month, and the salaries are also not fixed, because they keep on changing from time to time,” they complained.
