#kenya: *PRIVATE GUARDS SET TO EARN KSH 30K AFTER COURT UPHOLDS MINIMUM WAGE* The court has upheld the Private Security Regulatory Authority (PSRA) legal notice setting the minimum wage for private security guards in Kenya at Sh30,000. This decision came after the Employment and Labour Relations Court dismissed a petition challenging the implementation of the minimum wage. The court ruled that the petition lacked merit and had been abandoned by the petitioner. The PSRA had directed all private security firms to pay their guards a minimum wage of Sh30,000 before statutory deductions. Employers who fail to comply with this directive will be liable to a fine of Sh2 million.
