Telecommunications giant, MTN has disengaged 280 of its employees in Nigeria.It was gathered that some of the affected staff include 200 permanent employees and 80 contract staff across various cadres, ranging from new graduates to senior managers.
Some of the staff also include those who had joined the company 15 years ago when it opened an office in Nigeria.
It was gathered that workers were given a severance of 75% of their gross monthly income multiplied by the number of years with the company.
“Given that the company is about 16 years old in Nigeria, the severance package brought pain and discontent among the affected staff,” a source told Premium Times.
“With the payoff structure, senior managers with 15 years of service were left with about N15 million. Most of the staff got less than N5 million.”
