Under section 14 of the Occupational Safety and Health Act gives a worker the right to refuse work that he or she believes is unsafe to himself/ herself or another worker. A worker who believes that he or she is endangered by workplace violence may also refuse work. Makala Mailu Mumende vs.Nyali Golf County Club [1991] KLR 13 stated thus: “No employer in the position of the defendant would warrant the total continuous security of an employee engaged in the kind of work that the plaintiff was engaged in, but inherently, dangerous. An employer is expected to reasonably take steps in respect of the employment, to lessen danger or injury to the employee. It is the employer’s responsibility to ensure a safe working place for his/her employees.” http://kenyalaw.org/caselaw/cases/view/11516/
