Good afternoon everyone,

Like other issues that have been discussed (Day 1 to day 6), my take is
that we must have things right from the beginning.  A BPO-specific
outfit (like the BPO society) should have the mandate to enforce (or at
least lobby the law enforcers) labour laws for this young industry.
This way, issues like the one that appeared on the Standard Newspaper
sometime back
(http://www.eastandard.net/sciencetech/InsidePage.php?id=1144013244&ci)
will be unheard of.  Furthermore, some clients especially from the US
are concerned about how the vendor he/she is giving work to treats
employees.

 

On a light note; could we begin re-thinking this whole issue of
interpretation ‘gender issues’ to mean ‘women issues’; men are
‘threatened too!

 

Muthoni

Dear Listers,

As per the schedule, I am pleased to hand-over the rest of the
moderation to Nyaki who will introduce the remaining themes starting
with the "Youth and Gender" theme today.

Nyaki's CV is too long to fit in one email but its suffice to say that
she belongs to this breed of Researchers that wants to bridge the gap
between Academia and Socio-economic realities of out times.  The rest of
her story can be googled, but remember to use her official "handle" -
Dr. Catherine Adeya.

Over to you Nyaki.  Plse tell us about today's theme.

walu.
