"content": "Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I rise to support the adoption of Sessional Paper No. 4 of 2013. The import of this Paper is that it provides a policy framework upon which both employers and employees are able to see fundamental rights of institutions and employed individuals. It is quite worrying sometimes under what policy individuals are employed by industries or institutions in Kenya. You can only realise the problems when you go to listen to what actually goes on at the Industrial Court. Because of lack of that policy framework, individuals are employed without any memorandum or papers signed and they are fired by the employer at will. I believe this Sessional Paper gives us a way forward. The other area that is really important is equal opportunity in employment and the comprehensive strategy. I think it is Karl Marx who said: “Everybody according to their abilities.” That is how people should be paid and rewarded.
