Global Analyst Mr. Agbai Eke Agbai PhD emphasizes that workers are the backbone of any government, and their appreciation is crucial.
On May Day, he questioned whether African workers are truly happy with their compensation.
Key Concerns Raised by Mr. Agbai:
– Low Wages: Average workers in Africa struggle to have a decent living due to low wages.
– Lack of Benefits: Many workers lack access to essential benefits, including:
– Insurance: No social safety nets to fall back on.
– Healthcare: Limited access to quality medical care.
– Education: Difficulty affording quality education for their children.
– Housing: Inadequate housing conditions.
– Static Salaries: While the cost-of-living increases, worker salaries often remain stagnant.
Mr. Agbai urges authorities to prioritize addressing these issues, emphasizing the need for improvement in the lives of African workers.
By doing so, governments can ensure a better quality of life for workers and their families.
