In light of the recent events involving the owners of #Cannoli and their manager,
we at the Centre for Labour Research (CLR), in the interest of protecting the
fundamental human #right to #dignity, condemn any and all forms of #harassment.
2/12
The viral video in which the owners of Cannoli are seen singling out and
humiliating their manager due to his inability to speak the colonisers language for
their entertainment depicts a form of #workplaceharassment. Such behaviour is
unacceptable.
3/12
It is the responsibility of the employer to ensure that each and every employee,
regardless of their #employment status, the sector of employment, or their
occupation feel safe, respected and included at the workplace.

As entrusted in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the International
Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights and article 14 of the Constitution
of Pakistan with regard to the inviolability of the dignity of a person,
5/12
#CLR recommends all #labour legislation explicitly prohibit harassment to
ensure promotion of decent work in relation to education, language,
socio-economic status, race, gender, sex, age, colour, caste, domicile, religion, creed, political opinion and disability.
