The Employment and Labour Relations Court has allowed Egerton University academic staff to go on strike if their employer continues to default on their benefits including salaries.
In a judgment dismissing a petition by the institution, Justice Hellen Wasilwa stated that the university has a duty to show when it is willing to pay the monies owed to staff and that the funds have been factored into the budget cycle.
