G4S threatens legal action in Malawi

After the appearance of newspaper articles which are highly critical of the G4S treatment of workers in Malawi, the company contacted the Minister of Labor and threatened legal action against the union.

A delegation representing unions, NGOs and others will visit Malawi soon to investigate claims of underpayment of overtime and harsh treatment. The company's policy in Malawi is to pay workers a LOWER hourly wage after the employee has worked for 8 hours.
