The Federation of Kenya Employers (FKE) and the Kenya Association of Manufacturers (KAM) are renewing their push for a reduction in Pay As You Earn (PAYE) tax to boost workers' take-home pay amidst rising living costs.

• The organizations propose broadening PAYE bands and lowering tax rates to increase disposable income.
• Key figures include FKE Executive Director Jacqueline Mugo and KAM representative Tobias Alando.
• This push comes as the National Treasury begins preparations for the Finance Bill, 2027, with a submission deadline of August 31, 2026.
