Court backs bid to sack worker over colleagues’ secret video sent to CEO
Mr Kanai had contended that he did the recording after the CEO demanded evidence. He contended that it was confidential information to the CEO and the Operations Manager, and there was no complaint from the recorded staff.
The Labour and Employment Relations Court in Nyeri has upheld a decision by a non-governmental organisation (NGO) to sack one of its employees for covertly recording his colleagues at the workplace and sharing the audio with the firm’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO).
The employee, Kanai Gakenia, admitted that he recorded audio of his colleagues at the office to collect evidence that the HR Manager had access to confidential letters he had sent to the CEO and the operations manager. The NGO is known as Lion Landscapes.
