The Employment and Labour Relations Court has backed a decision by the operators of supermarket chain Carrefour to summarily dismiss a former head of its retail store in Kisumu for accepting undisclosed Sh40,000 cash payments from a registered supplier.
The court ruled that Cornelius Bulimo breached the company's code of ethics by accepting two equal batches of Sh20,000 payments from a supplier, identified in court records as Peter Mbui, creating a conflict of interest while serving as the senior manager at the Kisumu branch.
