Zimbabwean workers building the US$1 billion steel plant for the Chinese-owned Dinson Iron &amp; Steel Company (Disco) claim they are being exploited.
Disco is a subsidiary of China’s largest stainless steel manufacturer, Tsingshan Holdings.
The workers told <a href="https://www.timeslive.co.za/sunday-times/news/2023-02-12-new-chinese-steel-plant-accused-of-exploiting-workers/">The Sunday Times</a> that they are being forced to work in inhumane conditions and are not given off days.
The steel plant which is touted to become Africa’s largest steel plant is located in Manhize, Mvuma, about 192 kilometres south of Harare.
Production is set to start in August this year and the plant is expected to manufacture more than 1.2 million tonnes of steel a year.
A 35-year-old construction worker who spoke to the Sunday Times on condition of anonymity said:
<blockquote>
Nothing good is coming out of the steel plant; we live like animals. Eight workers sleep in one tiny room.
We have no basic sanitation. Sewage overflows at the plant because of blocked plumbing.
We defecate in the bush because they are no working toilets at the plant.
</blockquote>
The sewage overflow is next to the kitchen where the food for workers is prepared.
We are not allowed to cook our own food. The food we are given by the company is badly prepared — we are given sadza with beans or sadza with cabbage.
The food looks disgusting — we eat because we are hungry.
We are paid $4 a day and the money comes as half in local currency and another half in US dollars.
l work for 30 days, with no off day — l have no free time to even visit my loved ones.
<blockquote>
We are not given any off days; you have to work for 30 days. Recently, l got an off day because l lied that my relative had passed away.
It’s a very difficult place to work, but we work because we are desperate for money and to provide for our families.
It’s unfortunate that our Chinese colleagues don’t see us as human beings but as animals. It’s inhumane.
</blockquote>
Another worker, who is 32, claimed they are paid US$$4 a day, working for 30 days straight with no weekends off. Said the worker:
<blockquote>
We are paid $4 a day and the money comes as half in local currency and half in US dollars.
l work for 30 days, with no off day — l have no free time to even visit my loved ones.
</blockquote>
Another worker said they work overtime but are not paid for it and the company doesn’t give them payslips. He said:
<blockquote>
I also work overtime from 5 pm until 10 pm but l am never paid for the overtime. We are not given payslips to see how many hours we have worked.
If we raise concerns, we are ignored. If you keep complaining, eventually you lose your job. With the money l earn I am not able to send rent money or buy groceries for my family.
We once went on strike demanding better pay but the company called the police on us and we were forced back to work.
Quitting is not an option as l am desperate for work to be able to feed my family.
</blockquote>
More than 800 workers are employed at the Manhize plant, with most of them living on the site.
The Zimbabwe Construction &amp; Allied Trades Workers’ Union (ZCATWU), which is affiliated with the Zimbabwe Congress of Trade Unions (ZCTU), said it tried to organise workers there but management denied them access.
However, in a statement, Dinson Iron &amp; Steel Company denied the allegations, saying they are “continued attempts at smearing and undermining the good work of the investors”.

Chinese Steel Plant Accused Of Exploiting Zimbabwean Workers

The <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Zimbabwe_Congress_of_Trade_Unions">Zimbabwe Congress of Trade Unions (ZCTU)</a> has petitioned Labour Minister, <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Paul_Mavima">Paul Mavima</a> to urgently intervene following reports of labour violations at the Chinese-run Manhidze Steel Works project.
The project worth US$1.5 billion is being implemented by a Chinese firm, Dinson Iron and Steel Company (DISCO).
It will be Africa’s largest integrated steel plant and is anticipated to start production in August this year producing over 1.2 million tons of steel.
While the massive investment is expected to unlock thousands of jobs for struggling locals alarm has been raised over ensuing labour rights abuses at the plant.
Kudakwashe Munengiwa, the acting secretary general of the ZCTU, expressed his alarm about the situation in a letter to Mavima that was obtained by NewZimbabwe.com. Read part of the letter:
<blockquote>
As you might be aware, the Manhidze Project in Mvuma is being constructed by a Chinese company DISCO and our affiliate union, the Zimbabwe Construction and Allied Trade Workers Union (ZCATWU), visited the company on various occasions with the intention or organising and recruiting the construction workers.
Their efforts to organise and recruit members at the company has been frustrated by the company management which has been giving flimsy excuses to deny them access to the site.
The union even approached the registrar of Labour Ms. Mugomazi and Principal Labour Officer from Gweru Mr. Maburutse, who tried their best to help, but without success.
</blockquote>
He said the company’s management even refused to accept stop order forms signed by workers who wanted to join the union.
The ZCTU says the company is now forcing workers to join a union that the employer is trying to form in direct violation of the Labour Act and the ILO Conventions 98 and 87 on the right to organise and freedom of association.
ZCTU says DISCO’s actions will tarnish the image of the country globally as it will be viewed as anti-union. 
Chinese firms in Zimbabwe face accusations of human rights violations, such as worker exploitation, environmental harm, and lack of transparency. Reports include low wages, hazardous work conditions, and a lack of safety gear. 
Some firms are accused of illegal activities like corruption and smuggling, but the scope of these abuses is unclear and claims are disputed.

ZCTU Petitions Minister Over Labour Violations At Chinese-run Manhidze Steel Project

Chinese steel manufacturer Dinson Iron and Steel Company (DISCO) has announced plans to produce lithium-ion batteries in Zimbabwe saying the southern African country has all the raw materials required in the production process.
The company expects to produce two million tonnes of lithium concentrate per year to support the battery manufacturing plant, according to <a href="https://www.sundaymail.co.zw/chinese-firm-to-manufacture-lithium-batteries-in-zim">The Sunday Mail</a>.
DISCO, which is currently <a href="https://zero.pindula.co.zw/zimbabwe-set-to-become-africas-largest-steel-producer/">constructing Africa’s largest integrated steel plant</a> in Manhize near Mvuma to the tune of US$1.5 billion, is one of the three local subsidiaries of the world’s largest stainless steel producer Tsingshan Holdings.
DISCO project director Mr Wilfred Motsi said Zimbabwe is endowed with mineral resources such as nickel and graphite that are key in the production of lithium-ion batteries. He said:
<blockquote>
As a company, we are gratified by the Government’s position to ban raw lithium exports; it is something that we have been waiting for and it also strategically positions us in our plans to go green and set up a lithium-ion battery manufacturing plant.
Zimbabwe is endowed with vast mineral resources, including graphite in the Karoi area, and nickel, which are critical raw materials in lithium-ion battery production.
So, given our future plans for the battery manufacturing plant, the vast mineral endowment, coupled with the move by the Government to ban raw lithium exports, puts us on track to set up a viable project in Zimbabwe.
We really commend the Government for banning raw lithium exports, even on chrome ore. We are one of the proponents of such a policy. 
We have not yet gone to the stage of identifying the plant’s location and cost. We are still doing feasibility studies and significant headway has been made in that regard
</blockquote>
In December 2022, <a href="https://zero.pindula.co.zw/zimbabwe-bans-export-of-raw-lithium/">Zimbabwe banned exports of lithium ore and unpurified lithium salts</a> in a bid to encourage investment in local processing facilities.
The government said only producers who special circumstances can be exempted from the ban but still would have to pay the 15 per cent export tax.
Lithium-ion batteries are used in electric vehicles, electronic gadgets, toys, wireless headphones, hand-held power tools, and small and large power appliances, as well as electrical energy storage systems.
