This is to enable us to cross check their responses to the earlier question on non-observance of rights at work as well as a test of their understanding of rights issues at work. The responses are listed in table 15. The issues listed include; too much work, sexual harassment, abuse of rights, late payment of salary, late closing, job insecurity and humiliation/intimidation. The responses are similar to those in Table 14 above and they confirm non-observance of workers' rights. 38
