By RICHARD MUNGUTIMore by this AuthorStruggling Postal Corporation of Kenya (PCK) has been ordered to pay more than 4,000 former employees money likely to run into billions after the Retirement Benefits Authority (RBA) ordered it to re-calculate the pension and pay in 30 days. The order will also affect unspecified Telkom and Communication Authority of Kenya (CAK) formerly Communication Commission of Kenya (CCK) workers. “It is not in doubt that there is a lapse of three years in determining a complaint arising from retirement benefits is inordinate delay,” ruled Justice Odunga. The RBA CEO Nzomo Mutuku on Wednesday directed PCK Trustees to “recalculate the members’ benefits for service rendered during three different periods in accordance with applicable rules.”Mr Mutuku ordered PCK to pay the underpaid former employees’ pension dues entitled to them within 30 days. His directive will equally affect Telkom which had been ordered last year to pay Sh7.2 billion in pension dues.
