The Senate, on Thursday discussed a bill seeking to stop employers in the private and public sectors from engaging employable Nigerian graduates as casual workers.
The Prohibition of Casualisation Bill 2020 was sponsored by Senator Ayo Akinyelure.
Akinyelure noted that casualisation of Nigerian graduates in the Nigerian labour market had become a subject of great concern.
He said more workers continued to lament under this immoral strategy of cutting cost by employers rendering them inferior to their counterpart in other countries of the world.
He said, “Statistics from the Nigeria Labour Congress shows that many workers in the telecommunications, oil and gas sectors are engaged as casual labourers by employers of labours.
“Other sectors with thousands of casual labourers include mining, steel, banking and insurance.”
Akinyelure while citing the banking industry as a hub for casualisation, blamed banks for turning female marketers into prostitutes and sexual slaves in a dire attempt by them to keep their jobs and meet unrealistic deposit targets.
He said, ‘In the banking and insurance industry, for instance, many young graduates particularly females are employed as marketers and given unrealistic customer deposit targets running into millions.
“They are hired and fired at will when unrealistic targets are not met.
“The female among them who are desperate in keeping their jobs turn to harlotry and sex slavery.
“They, move from one office to the other looking for invisible customers who have large funds to enable them meet their targets.
“It is high time this evil and devilish act is stopped.”
Senator Biodun Olujimi added, “Our girls have been turned into what we cannot imagine.
“Most of them have been asked to look for funds, and when they come to us, I always tell them, I do not even have the funds to eat; how can I have funds to keep with you in the bank?
“They will never be promoted if they don’t bring in such funds, and this is a banking industry that is privately owned, yes, but has made so much profit, and from the profit they could at least take the few that they can manage properly, rather than take a lot that they will be giving pittance.”
The lawmaker emphasized on the need to have a legal framework to ensure that casualisation did not exist.
The Senate President, Ahmad Lawan, in his statement urged the Committee on Employment, Labour and Productivity to strike a balance in the bill to ensure that casual workers in the country were not made victims of layoffs.
