> Since the 1st of April, there has been some changes, some challenges within our economy and we are continuing to engage employees in order to come up with a mid-term adjustment to their salaries sometime in June and July.

The government raised civil servants’ salaries in April leaving the least paid getting ZWL$600. However, the Real Time Gross Settlement dollar has been shedding value at an unparalleled rate. ZWL$600.00 is now being equated to only US$100 considering that the parallel market is now trading at around ZWL$570 per US$100.

Teachers and Doctors have given the government a two-week ultimatum to resolve the issue. They are demanding to be paid in United States Dollars or workers will withdraw their services.
