Why we sacked 280 of our workers-MTN

It was earlier reported this morning that the Mobile Telecommunications Company sacked about 280 of its workers across its different operational units in Nigeria. Well, the company has explained why it sacked hundreds of its workers who have served the company for five years and more.

In a statement signed by MTN’s Spokesperson, Funsho Aina, the company said it sacked some of its workers in order to increase opportunities for professionals with fresh perspectives.
He said, “Our people are our greatest asset, each individual’s knowledge, experience and ideas contributes to our continued growth and improvement. As such, ensuring a healthy and highly motivated workforce is a priority for us.
“It is with this in mind that MTN Nigeria has implemented a Voluntary Severance Scheme designed to balance individual employee needs with business exigencies. The program was designed drawing on feedback from employees and following consultation with elected employee representatives.
“It provides a financial incentive and opportunity for employees who have worked with MTN for over five years to pursue other career interests and personal ambitions full-time, while increasing opportunities for professionals with a fresh perspective wishing to join the MTN family.“Its successful conclusion last week makes it possible for MTN to tailor the competence and experience base of its workforce to meet technology shifts and future business needs,” the statement read.

  1. This is a tactics to shortchange Nigerians. New employee will be paid a lesser salary compared with those that are being disengaged. Their wage bill will drastically go down at the expense of Nigerians worker's growth with MTN.This same measure await those that are still in service. It is just a matter of time.
