You don't need a lawyer to get your salary paid

You've been working hard, but your employer hasn't paid your salary. This can be stressful and affect your financial stability. Most people think they need a lawyer to get their salary paid, but this isn't always the case. In Kenya, the Labour Office can help resolve salary disputes, but the process can be slow and bureaucratic. This is where Immani comes in – a digital dispute resolution platform that helps you resolve disputes quickly and easily.

Why the usual advice doesn't work for you

When you're not paid your salary, the usual advice is to go to the Labour Office or Small Claims Court. However, these processes can take months, and you may need to wait for a long time to get your salary paid. Additionally, you may need to hire a lawyer, which can be expensive. Immani is a faster and more affordable way to resolve disputes like this.

How Immani works for you

Immani is a digital platform that allows you to file a dispute with your employer's phone number. You describe what happened, and Immani sends a notification to your employer. You both have a private window to respond and engage directly. If your employer doesn't respond, the dispute becomes visible to anyone who looks up their phone number on Immani, which often prompts a response. The dispute only closes when both sides confirm they have engaged and reached an understanding.
