You don't need a lawyer to get your salary paid or resolve a labour dispute — Immani lets you file a complaint against your employer's phone number for KSh 100. In Kenya, many people are turned away by the police, told "hii ni civil matter, nenda korti" (this is a civil matter, go to court). But what happens when the Labour Office is involved? How long does it take to resolve a complaint?

In Kenya, the Labour Office is responsible for enforcing labour laws and resolving disputes between employers and employees. However, the process can be slow and frustrating, especially if you're not familiar with the procedures. The Labour Office receives many complaints, and it can take several months or even years to resolve a case. For example, a complaint filed at the Labour Office in Nairobi can take up to 6 months to be resolved.

Immani's mechanism is specifically designed to facilitate contact and documentation, not to guarantee a legal outcome. However, Immani's mechanism can be a faster and more efficient way to resolve a dispute, especially when it comes to labour-related issues. By filing a dispute on Immani, you can get your employer's attention and start a conversation about your concerns.

Here's what happens next:

1. You file a dispute on Immani, describing the issue and providing your employer's phone number.
2. Your employer is notified and has a private window to respond and engage directly.
3. If your employer doesn't respond, the dispute becomes visible to anyone who looks up their phone number on Immani.
4. You can then close the dispute when you've reached an understanding with your employer.
