    "content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, even here in Parliament, you should not call your staff beyond the working hours. They have the right to refuse to answer the call. If they do not pick that phone call, they should not be reprimanded or face disciplinary action. I know the culprits are normally in media because I have friends who are journalists. A fire breaks out in Gikomba Market and you are working for certain media houses, I do not want to name names because of risk. Somebody might think we are saying it out of the privilege here. Madam Temporary Speaker, for example, you have been called to go and cover Gikomba Market at 2 a.m. in the morning. You may be sleeping or performing Godly duties at night. There are assignments that should be done at night as God directed all of us in the holy book of Genesis. You are resting. Maybe even you are unwell, but your boss calls you to go and cover that story. I think journalists bear the brunt. For police officers and others, it is an emergency, it is an emergency situation. In a couple of minutes, I will wind up and then Sen. Okiya Omtatah will second because he has vast knowledge on such issues. This is a situation where the employer contacts the employee beyond working hours without mutual agreement. I know there are Kenyans who use night shift. So, if you are working in night shift between 6 p.m. and 6 a.m., as your boss, I am not allowed to call you unless there is mutual working environment."
