At least 400 staff at G4s Kenya will have no jobs as from February 28, 2025, the security firm has announced.
In a notice, contracts of employees that expired on December 31, 2024, will not be renewed for the year 2025, and thus, their service with the company will cease effective February 28, 2025.
The affected employees have been advised to return all company property in their possession to their managers and obtain clearance slips to enable processing of their final dues.
In November last year, G4S wrote to the Ministry of Labour informing them of an intent to lay off at least 400 staff following a reduction in business occasioned by the effects of the harsh economic challenges, leading to reduced revenues and a high cost of running the business.
Similarly, Eat ‘N’ Go, the parent company of Coldstone and Domino’s Pizza in Kenya, has announced that it will be laying off at least 55 staff members following a decline in revenue and profitability.
An internal assessment has confirmed that the company has a bloated payroll, thus the need to lay off at least 55 workers effective end of this month
Eat’N’Go is Nigeria and Kenya’s master franchisee for the Domino’s Pizza, Cold Stone Creamery and Pinkberry Gourmet Frozen Yoghurt brands.
