He said: > The government of [President] Emmerson Mnangagwa has always disregarded the fundamental rights of the workers after his Labour Minister Paul Mavima announced a salary rise of US$50 without consulting the workers. > Ordinarily, we would have discussed this offer on the collective bargaining platform but unfortunately (Minister of Public Service, Labour and Social Welfare, Paul) Mavima doesn’t respect the NJNC. We have rejected the NJNC and the minister doesn’t care. > We didn’t just reject the US$50 but the whole process that the government has been insisting on this illegal process we have rejected (it). Zimbabwe Congress of Public Sector Trade Unions (ZCPSTU) secretary-general David Dzatsunga told Business Times that they wanted a US$150 increment to keep up with the rising cost of living. He said civil servants have been pushing for US$540 per month and expected an increment in the range of between US$100 and US$150 per month. The least paid civil servant is said to be earning US$250 and ZWL$130 000 a month. More: Pindula News _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
