*Civil Servants Reject 40% Salary Increment* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?zp Negotiations between the Government and civil servants representatives for a salary adjustment hit a brick wall on Thursday after the latter rejected a 40 per cent increment which would see the lowest-paid worker taking home ZWL$4 800. The meeting held yesterday was the second National Joint Negotiating Council (NJNC) meeting with talks having started last week, for the first time since the first quarter of 2020. ---------- *HOT DEALS:* *itel A70 - (128GB, 3GB RAM) $89,* *itel A70 - (256GB, 4GB RAM) $99* *itel P40 (128GB, 4GB), (6000mAh) $99* *itel P40 (64GB, 4G), (6000mAh) $93* *LATEST: itel S24 (128) $124; S24 (256GB) $159* Cash on Delivery in Harare & Bulawayo.

The statement read in part: > The National Joint Negotiating Council (NJNC) meeting held today was deadlocked after workers rejected the Government offer of 40% of the basic salary and current allowance which would amount to ZWL4800 for the lowest-paid worker, translating to just about USD50 > The workers stuck to the demand that whatever percentage increase be based on the October 2018 salary of USD441 for the lowest-paid worker, benchmarked against the foreign currency auction rate. > While Government had initially committed to pay the COVID allowance up to year-end, it has now insisted this is conditional on the signing of a substantive agreement. The Civil Service Apex Council also revealed that the Government promised to pay the outstanding US$75 COVID-19 allowance on or before the 25th of September 2020. *More: ZTN News* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
