The concept of lockouts and how employers may respond to a strike
from CDH Conversations · host CLIFFE DEKKER HOFMEYR
A lot of discourse within employment circles in Kenya has been about strikes. However, very little has been said about the right of employers to lock out employees. CDH Partner Desmond Odhiambo and Trainee Advocate, Kevin Kipchirchir provide expert insights into what a lock out is, the parameters of declaring a lockout, and the process of declaring one. They also unpack the use of replacement labour which though not developed within Kenyan jurisprudence, has been aptly elaborated in South Africa.
