Women
temporary employees at Swaziland’s Central Statistics Office (CSO) have
allegedly been forced to have sex with their bosses to keep their jobs.
The women
are engaged in the ongoing Swaziland Population and Housing Census and the
Swaziland Household Income and Expenditure Surveys, according to a report in
the Observer on Saturday newspaper.
The paper
reported on Saturday (2 July 2016), senior employees who were employed on a
permanent basis demanded sexual favours from the temporary workers if they
wanted to keep their jobs.
An
unnamed source told the newspaper, ‘The CSO bosses are taking advantage of the
female staff. They have wives yet they use their power to have sex with the
defenceless young girls so they can keep their jobs.’
CSO
Director Amos Zwane said the allegations were taken seriously and an
investigation would take place.
