NAIROBI—A Kenyan judge on Tuesday temporarily blocked the mass redundancy of some 260 Facebook content moderators working for an outsourcing company contracted by the social media site’s parent company Meta, court documents show.
Judge Matthews Nduma issued an interim injunction against Meta and the Kenya-based outsourcing firm Sama, preventing them from terminating the content moderators’ contracts at the end of March, pending a judgement on the legality of their redundancy.
