Workers' rights violations

Dismissals for participating in strike action

Following a 48-hour teachers' strike in Togo, demanding that the government respect the reimbursement of their exceptional bonus, 1,192 school principals were downgraded. An order was issued on 4 November 2021 by the Minister of Primary, Secondary, Technical Education and Handicrafts to replace just over 1,000 public school principals and ask teachers to resume their place in the classroom.
