- They have called on the Ghanaian government to compel Twitter to follow Ghana’s Redundancy laws.
Former Ghanaian Twitter employees have opened up about how Elon Musk has treated them, and they are very displeased.
Since assuming control over twitter in late October, Elon Musk has been on a terminating binge, trying to chop down the organization's 7000 staff to 3500. This obviously implied that whole business sectors would be impacted, and no twitter worker is protected.
In Africa, Twitter had just a single base of activity, which was an office in Accra Ghana, worked by a 12 man group.
Given the generally modest number of representatives, it had neither rhyme nor reason that the Tesla pioneer would fire everything except 1 of the staff individuals in the main twitter settle on the whole African plain. Peruse the story here.
No matter what his reasons, the previous Ghanaian representatives are facing Elon, expressing that they should get similar 3 months severance bundle stood to their American and European partners.
They have likewise approached their administration to constrain Twitter to consent to Ghana's overt repetitiveness regulations, which manages the cost of workers a fair exchange and overt repetitiveness pay.
As per a report by CNN, "laid-off representatives at Twitter's Africa central command are blaming Twitter for "intentionally and carelessly spurning the laws of Ghana" and attempting to "quietness and scare" them after they were terminated.
The group has recruited a legal counselor and sent a letter to the organization requesting it conform to the West African country's work regulations, give them extra severance pay and other important advantages, in accordance with what other Twitter representatives will get."
The previous Ghanaian twitter staff gave a letter where they definite their complaints with the world's most extravagant man and expressed their requests. The letter peruses to some degree; "obviously Twitter, Inc. under Mr Elon Musk is either purposely or carelessly ridiculing the laws of Ghana, is working in dishonesty and in a way that tries to quiet and threaten previous representatives into tolerating any terms singularly tossed at them."
The report by CNN infers that the previous Ghanaian Twitter staff were not offered severance pay, which they say is "expected by Ghana's work regulations, in view of their business contracts. They likewise guarantee they were not educated about the following stages — in contrast to workers in the US and Europe — until a day after CNN covered their circumstance."
Up until this point, the Ghanaian staff have recruited a legal counselor to prosecute Elon. They've noticed that they can't haggle with Twitter in light of the fact that up until this point Twitter has denied them admittance to convey, in light of the fact that their messages continue to return.
