    "content": "(b) The three multinational firms have not flouted the existing labour laws by engaging expatriates. The expatriates are lawfully working in Kenya as they have been issued with work permits in accordance with the Immigration Act. (c) I am not in a position to give statistics of the proportion of unskilled labour from the local community. The statistics available relate to the proportion of unskilled labour to management, as all communities seek employment as Kenyans. Indeed, Section 5 of the Employment Act, Cap.11 of 2007, provides that no employer shall discriminate against an employee on grounds of ethnic or social background amongst others. (d) I have not noticed any anomalies relating to the labour laws allegedly flouted by the three firms to warrant me to take any action to rectify the same."
