Reactions Over Employer’s Plan To Sack Dead Employee

A Nigerian man has ignited a wave of reactions on social media after sharing the shocking story of how his employer was preparing to sack a colleague, unaware that the employee had tragically passed away just two days earlier.

In a post shared on X (formerly known as Twitter), the man explained that his fellow employee’s absence had led their employer to initiate dismissal plans, not knowing that he had died.

The post, which quickly gained attention, highlighted the disconnect between the deceased employee’s personal tragedy and the employer’s swift move to terminate his contract.

He wrote, “A colleague at work passed away two days ago, and they were about to sack him for not showing up today. These jobs do not care about you, prioritize yourself!”

The post struck a chord with many users, leading to an outpouring of reactions in the comment section. Many expressed shock at how little regard some employers have for their workers’ well-being, while others echoed the sentiment that individuals should prioritize their personal lives and health over work.
