The services of 280 workers of MTN Nigeria were no longer needed, prompting their disengagement last Friday according to the operator.
MTN said the disengagement exercise which affected 280 mostly long-serving workers would enable the company to delve into full ICT and digital operations.
Pleading anonymity, an MTN official said in Lagos on Monday that the company would inject another group of new employees, capable of delivering on it new goals. The source said that the disengagement was necessary because of the changing dynamics of the telecommunications industry in recent time.
The source said that the service provider introduced the Voluntary Severance Scheme (VSS), urging staff to apply for voluntary disengagement.
According to the source, only 200 workers applied for the VSS, while 80 were given compulsory disengagement The source added that those affected were those who had worked for five years and above in the company.
The source said that the affected workers were given a severance pay of 75 per cent of their gross monthly income, multiplied by the number of years they had worked with the company.
“Those who decided to leave under the VSS were paid the equivalent of their three weeks gross salary for every year they worked with MTN. What it means is that if one worked in MTN for five years, one would be paid three weeks of the person’s gross salary times five.”
