Sri Lankan firm, Browns Plc, has kicked up a storm with the planned retrenchment of more than 2,000 employees, a year after setting up base in Kenya.
The Kenya Plantation and Agricultural Workers Union and local leaders led by Kericho Governor Erick Mutai said the company was unjustifiably targeting workers, months after taking over the plantations in Kericho, Bomet, and Kiambu from James Finlay Kenya and Ekaterra Plc.
