Hundreds of workers belonging to three unions at Egerton University protested the delay by the university management to implement the 2017-2021 Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA).
The union members drawn from University Academic Staff Union (Uasu), Kenya Universities Staff Union (Kusu) and Kenya Union of Domestic, Hotels, Educational Institutions, Hospitals and Allied Workers (Kudheiha) claimed that their employer had slashed their salaries and other benefits without consulting union officials.
