Golden Hills Academy Cuts 50% of My Salary Over Lesson Note Delay
I’m a teacher at Golden Hills Academy in Abuja. My proprietress docked 50% of my pay for allegedly not working during the Easter break. I did virtual lessons on April 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. The official break started on the 4th, yet only my pay was halved. Other teachers received full salaries. Her written excuse blames me for “no work” during the holiday, but I believe it’s retaliation for late lesson notes. Section 5 of the Labour Act forbids fines that large. I’ve been teaching every day since resumption and have proof of my work and the deduction. How can private schools treat teachers like this? I need advice and support to stop this injustice.
