Nairobi, Nov. 10 -- An attempt by a Kenyan firm to stop the auction of office furniture and vehicles over a Sh5.5 million compensation claim by a former employee has failed, paving the way for the recovery of a court award arising from her constructive dismissal.

The former employee, Fidelis Wambui, was awarded Sh4.4 million after the Labour Relations Court found that Hallmark Marketing had discriminated against her on account of pregnancy and constructively dismissed her in 2021. The award, together with interest, costs and execution charges, has since grown to Sh5.5 million.
