The victim who received GhC 5,000 from the Duffour Foundation is said to have been sent to the KorleBu Teaching hospital yesterday following concerns of her ill-health and weakness.
That’s the photo of the Lebanese Supervisor-Jihad Chaaban at the centre of the Marwako Restaurant saga–he has been charged with battery by the Police.
Because of social media, the victim has obtained the justice she deserves.
But I find the insults being thrown at foreigners who own businesses in Ghana funny–as Ghanaian business owners do the same or worse.
I encouraged and pushed my girlfriend, now wife-to-be to quit her job some time back, because, her boss gave her no employment contract, despite the Labor Law clearly and specifically making this a requirement.
She was not even given an appointment letter–nothing to show she worked for this company at the time.
Irrespective of how much I pressured her to ensure she got these legal papers which she was simply entitled to, the boss, a Ghanaian never wanted to give it to her–so literally, she had no rights as a human being working for another human being.
It was as if the boss was doing her a favour by giving her a job–when employment is simply a relationship between a skill bearer and a skill ‘requirer’.
This is a first class University graduate, being treated like this by a boss who perhaps hasn’t been to University even. You can imagine my anger–so I said; quit it, “I will pay you how much he gives you each month–until you find something you love to do that comes with the respect you deserve.”
She did not have a closing time: sometimes she worked to as late as 8pm–in fact, they were only allowed to leave after the boss had left.
