Staff Welfare –Staff at the Standard Group SG media house have been denied most of key welfare services following the current financial situation at the media station.
Most staff who work at the Mombasa road-based headquarters can nolonger enjoy the breakfast, lunch and dinner they have been enjoying for decades when the giant media house was at the top of business in the country.
On Tuesday, March 1, staff working at the headquarters were all slapped with a bad news notice announcing suspension of a key welfare service – among these services are daily meals.
The SG employees received a memo from the Human Resource Department HRD informing them of the discontinuation of important catering services.
“We wish to inform you that Cafeteria services are temporarily suspended. We are actively working to find a solution to ensure that your meal needs are met,” the memo read in part.
This move was attributed to the dire situation currently affecting the company which has no hopes of getting back to its feet anytime soon.
A source told this writer that the staff was advised to make alternative arrangements for their meals as the company continues to grapple with the biting financial crisis which has forced most of the staff to go without salaries now the fifth month.
