Holding
The Court adopts the computations by the Respondent but awards the Respondent Kshs 149,324/- as underpayments.
Facts
Anvi Emporium Ltd owed underpayments to Joel Otieno Amol, which were computed by the Appellant as Kshs 37,752/- for a period of 33 months at a daily rate of Kshs 52/-, while the Respondent computed the underpayments as Kshs 161,952/-.
Issues
- The validity of the Appellant's computations
- The applicability of the prescribed minimum wage during the employment period
Reasoning
The prescribed minimum wage was not static and there were at least two Legal Notices during the period, making the Appellant's computations casual and not based on the prevailing legal framework.
Outcome
The Respondent is awarded Kshs 149,324/- as underpayments.
