Social media giant Meta has clashed with a Facebook moderator on whether the Employment and Labour Relations Court (ELRC) has powers to determine a case filed over an alleged toxic work environment at a Kenyan firm.
Meta hired Samasource Kenya EPZ to keep Facebook safe. In the case, an ex-Facebook moderator Daniel Motaung accuses Samasource of infringing on his labour rights, including allegedly reviewing the most gruesome content on the global platform.
While arguing that the court has powers to entertain his case, Matoung in his submissions, argued that Meta has its footprints in Kenya. According to the moderator, it is widely used in the country and pays digital tax to the government.
