On Monday it was reported that the company's managers engaged in heinous act of forcibly undressing female employees, this is after it was alleged that a used sanitary pad was found by the management dumped in the wrong dust bin.
The matter was brought in to light by Senator Gloria Orwoba who first posted it on the social media.
On Thursday three managers were arrested following the incident that occurred. Those arrested were Plant's Quality Assurance Manager, Human Resource Manager and Human Resource Assistance this is according to the police ant the suspects are to be arraigned in court.It is also alleged that the victims of this incident were casual labourers and not the whole fraternity of the employees, and the perpetrators of the incident were ladies and not men as someone may allude this is according to the police.In response to this, the Brown Cheese Company through their communique apologized for the incident and assured the public that they will collaborate with the third party to help in investigation and make sure the truth comes out, "The company is engaging a third-party HR company to conduct an independent investigation of the matter and allow all employees a chance to discuss the matter with an external party," statement reads." We have apologized to the women involved and would like to apologize to the wider public as well." The statement further reads.On the plight of the managers arrested, the company made it clear that they are already suspended, "As soon as the matter was brought to our attention, the individuals involved were suspended pending the Company's investigation."Senator Gloria Orwoba further said that this is not first incident to happen, alleging that some have happened in the past.
Thanks to Senator Gloria Orwoba for whistleblowing.
According to the company's management, the Brown Cheese Company is a women-led company, this is according to the memo that was posted in one of their social media handle.Should it be ascertained that women are their own enemies as some of the books usually say? Maybe action will speak than terming it as slander, this is when those arrested were women, it may be early to judge it from this angle.When it is also said that only casual labourers were subjected to the heinous act, this purely reflect selective humiliation.Today, women lead in championing their right and gender equality. What a bad picture to show in public, especially when it is out that the humiliation was perpetrated by fellow ladies. The morality and ethics.Where is the humanity, when and where should we engage ethical issues or morality of our thinking. When someone is forced to undress as was the case with the Brown Cheese Company, where ladies were undressed to check who was in her period.In the good books it is said that do to others what you would like to be done unto you. In the same books it is said that love your neighbour as you love yourself. Where is the love.The justice should be administered regardless of social class.Such act involves infringing into someone's privacy and may highly result to suppressive self-esteem.The company as a way of making this not to happen should engage with the ladies who were involved in this act in a tete a tete discussion in how to compensate them this is to be parallel with the justice that is yet to be administered. Public apologies should not be satisfactory but rather what are they doing to the women at the company.Gender campaign is still far-reached theme and still fettered, many ramparts are still underway and are yet to be moved.Moving in to reality is the saviour, facing it is an issue, the inequality is a moribund. Standing for what is right is to be emblem being guided by morality and ethics Females are human, males are human we are both human beings.
