*Mine Workers Push For US$600 Living Wage* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?xd The Zimbabwe Diamond Allied and Minerals Workers Union (ZDAMWU) has demanded wage reviews between US$400 and US$600 for mine workers and urged workers’ committees to bargain at the workers’ council level instead of waiting for the National Employment Council (NEC). ZDAMWU secretary-general Justice Chinhema bemoaned the failure by employers to pay first-quarter salary arrears at a time when second-quarter wage negotiations should have been concluded. He said: ---------- *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* Cash on Delivery in Harare & Bulawayo.

Chinhema said as ZDAMWU, they were disappointed over employers’ failure to consider the COVID-19 allowances for mine workers when the sector was the only industry that remained on the ground and sustained other sectors during the lockdowns. *More: NewsDay* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
