Hi members,

I quit my previous job through pressure from my previous employer a couple of years ago.

Recently I came to learn that the company (previous employer) was awarded a good contract by some institution and that the company used my CV and certificates amongst those of her current employees in the tender.

In the tender the company had indicated that I was going to participate in the contract as one of her staff.

Is this morally right?

Under the Kenyan laws what crime(s) is this company guilty of?

What would be the best way to deal with the company?

Advise please.

Got a copy of the tender?

Ok. So just go to the insitution and tell them "iam Segemia from company z, I have come to implement/review the contract as signed."


There! you get your job back as project Manager

Be VERY sure of what you are talking about. Then do what you think is right.
Keep it simple

You are saying there is money to be made here. And what will the company be "legally" guilty of before the demands are made?

I am very sure about it. I saw the awarded tender myself.
I honestly don't know the best approach to this issue and that is why I am asking for advise from the members.

if i have nothing to loose, i'd do that.... and then tell that owner its either she gives me that job, or she looses the contract. the take is hers. then, when at it, do the work so well that she regrets having lost you... but make sure you bargain a good & of the profits.

best answer so far...there is differing school of thought in regards to such a case and it will all depend how you present your case...there is a high chance you will loose though...what documents of yours did they use?were they copies?
