By COLLINS OMULOMore by this AuthorMore than 15,000 Nairobi County staff are set to enjoy a 15 percent salary increment from next month. This comes after City Hall promised to implement a pay raise deal struck between the county government and the Kenya County Government Workers Union (KCGWU) in May 2017, which was later registered in September this year. Deputy County Secretary and Public Service Management chief officer Leboo Morintat explained that a meeting of the county executive committee held on Thursday, November 29, 2018 adopted the Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) registered in September, 2018. “We as a county government need to appreciate the personal effort and highest consideration taken by the governor to increase the remuneration of county employees. Under the terms of the agreement, the pay rise was to take effect in 2017/2018 financial year, but that never happened even though the county set aside Sh800 million to cater for the CBA.
