More than 400 workers at Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH) took home less than a third of their salaries in the financial year to June 2025, after deductions consumed the bulk of their pay.
Auditor-General Nancy Gathungu revealed that 410 affected workers each lost more than two-thirds of their earnings to deductions, leaving them with less than a third of a combined basic salary of Sh38.2 million, in breach of the law.
