Christians are not reflecting God in the workplace, says Minister of Labour Dr Esther Byer-Suckoo.
She said that Christians also contributed to poor productivity and work ethic in the workplace.
Speaking yesterday at the People’s Cathedral Primary School graduation, held under the theme I Will Be A Reflection Of God, Byer-Suckoo said that as Government planned for the future of the country, it was challenged with issues in the area of productivity and work ethic, which were not only contributed to by non-Christians but also those who professed to be Christians.
The minister said that it was very sad when “employers have to say that the laziest people in their workplaces are the Christians”.
“Christians in the workplace are not reflecting God. Christians in the workplace have verses on their desk, they have Cita Radio playing all day, they have calendars up and pictures up and a cross here and a cross there and they are not giving a full day’s work.”
Byer-Suckoo said that when an employee who professed to be a Christian was not setting a productive example in the working environment, non-Christians saw that.
