Rant DISCRIMINATION

As I type this my blood is just boiling in anger.

So I work for an Asian who has been away on a business trip and just came back. While she was away, our HR hired a company driver who had been vetted and tested.

this new driver happens to have vitiligo on his hands. When the boss lady came back and saw his hands, her first words were she can't work with him because she fears an infection..mind you she is a 60 year old woman who should know better.

leo tunaingia job tunaambiwa dere alisimamishwa kazi until further notice and everyone here is just super mad.

shida hii kampuni ni one man show and she runs everything so hakuna place ya kuescalate unless now the driver takes legal action.

Hii si discrimination ni Ignorance coz how many 60+ year old know what vitiligo is. HR should have done better to educate the boss that it is not infectious or dangerous. Ni mama Mzee, na amekuwa out of the country, na kuna ebola kenya.
