By the encouragement and support of the Interface team, Ehab took the route to distinguish himself, his attire and work differently from his peers and decided to take the lead where afterwards in accordance with the Carrefour team, Ehab was promoted to team leader position within the Interface outsourced workforce to Carrefour's janitorial department For a whole year, Ehab worked with a variety of workers and supervised their work, advocated for their rights with the support of Interface who not only took his concerns in relation to the salary of the janitor seriously to retain employees but also implemented an alternative route after the outbreak of COVID and complete lockdown that would allow for the retention of the employees rather than the planned laid off by Carrefour.
Interface managed through a very thorough financial calculation to shift the hypermarket's management steer from laid off to only deducting off days where the workers would receive partial pay instead
