BCL – May 2017 – L1 – Q3a – Employment Law

Evaluate the justification of workers’ strike action under poor working conditions.

Question

a) Asanka Pharmaceutical Company Limited manufactures several types of drugs, and which drugs are supplied to many chemical stores in Kojokrom. The company is located very close to a gutter which is also used by the residents as a refuse dump. This gutter is never desilted resulting in the fact that a strong odour hangs around the premises of the company. The equipment used in manufacturing the drugs are not only obsolete but also expose the workers of the company to injuries. The workers of the company have complained about the conditions under which they work, but the management of the company pays deaf ears to these complaints. Apart from the fact that the equipment used to manufacture the drugs created a problem for the workers, the company did not provide the necessary safety working gears to the workers.

When the complaints of the workers were not heeded for necessary remedies to be provided, they embarked on a sit-down strike. The management, therefore, summarily dismissed the leadership of the workers, saying that the leaders could not tell the management what to do in the running of the affairs of the company.

Required: Explain whether the workers of the Asanka Pharmaceutical Company Limited were justified in embarking on the sit-down strike action. (10 marks)
