Relief For Graduates As Clearance Certificate Requirement Is Scrapped

Job Seekers Can Now Breathe A Sigh Of Relief After Members Of Parliament Unanimously Supported The Employment Amendment Bill Without Any Objection. Graduates And Job Seekers According To The New Amendment Are Now Not Obligated By Law To Obtain Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA), Directorate Of Criminal Investigations (DCI), Higher Education Loans Board (HELB), Credit Reference Bureau (CRB), And Ethics And Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) Clearance Certificates Until Or Unless An Offer Of Employment Is Guaranteed. In A Statement By Mp Gideon Keter, It Was Highlighted That Job Seekers Will No Longer Be Tasked With The Responsibility Of Running Criminal Background Checks On Themselves So As To Secure A Job Interview.
