| Summary | Read the initial assessment issued by the Moroccan NCP – 31 October 2016 On 2 June 2016, an individual submitted a specific instance to the Moroccan NCP alleging that his employer, a US headquartered audit company, did not observe the Guidelines. More specifically, the submitter alleged that he had been unfairly dismissed, had suffered physical assault along with threats and insults at the company location and that his employer had refused to declare the work accident that occurred on the same day as the assault.
