Treat workers well or they become "economic terrorists" – Nduom

The 2012 flagbearer of the Progressive People’s Party (PPP) has admonished employers to properly treat workers who sacrifice for the growth of a company to prevent them from becoming “economic terrorists”.

Speaking at the Trinity Baptist Church in Accra, Dr Papa Kwesi Nduom said companies and businessmen must ensure that workers who sacrifice their energies during the difficult times are not abandoned during the good times.

“I help you to make some money and when you make the money you leave me behind, you can’t do that. If in tough times we are sacrificing and working, when there are good times, the goodness, the prosperity it must be shared,” Nduom told the congregants.

The PPP founder added, “otherwise your employees would become economic terrorists and as a business person that is the least you need. So it is important that we take that into consideration and that when we are in difficult times; that is the time to invest, it is a time to sacrifice and a time to work.

“It is also the time to convince everybody else that we are in this together, so we grow together but when good things come we share those things together,” Dr. Nduom stated.
