The Employment and Labour Relations Court has warned universities against delaying or denying lecturers’ salaries, on the pretext that they are underfunded by the government.
Judge James Rika expressed his dissatisfaction that many cases, including three he cited, had been filed by aggrieved lecturers against their respective universities over unpaid remuneration.
He said the court was concerned that whenever these cases are filed, the standard reasons the universities give for delaying or denying payment had been underfunding of universities.
