Harare City Council and its employees are on a collision course over the payment of foreign currency incentives.
City of Harare employees are arguing that they also need a cushion but Human Resources Committee chairperson, Councillor Kudzai Kadzombe, said they cannot access foreign currency. <a href="https://www.hmetro.co.zw/city-employees-up-in-arms/">H-Metro</a> quoted Kadzombe as saying:
<blockquote>
We have made efforts to approach relevant authorities to allow CoH to charge embassies and other institutions, which have easy access to foreign currency, in forex. However, our efforts have been fruitless.
We are faced with an impossible situation that, if not attended to, may result in a massive brain drain.
We are appealing to the relevant authorities to allow us to charge in foreign currency to those who can pay it so that we can try and manage this situation.
We want to keep our workers, who are currently not happy at all, as Government workers are getting a USD incentive.
</blockquote>
According to the Zimbabwe National Statistics Agency (ZIMSTAT), the United States dollar has progressively become the dominant currency in domestic transactions, with USD usage now over 75% of the economy.
The Zimbabwe dollar has been losing value since its re-introduction in 2019, with the majority of service providers, including the government, demanding payment in foreign currency.

Harare City Council Workers Demand USD Incentive

Public Service, Labour and Social Welfare Minister Paul Mavima on Wednesday revealed that government is currently giving a $180 monthly cushioning allowance to vulnerable people.
Mavima said the government delayed to release the funds because the database of names of vulnerable people had to be cleaned first. He said:
<blockquote>As you know we had to delay a bit in making the cash transfers because we had to clean up the original database of vulnerable people and we now have a database with 201 000 people.
Therefore, the payments for this month started last week. People are receiving $180 per person.
This is because we thought we would marry two programmes, the one where we have always been giving $180 and the one for people who have become vulnerable as a result of the national lockdown, using the resources that have been released. We are sure that all the 201 000 will be paid $180 each this month.</blockquote>
Mavima further revealed that vulnerable people would be getting $300 starting from June and that this would continue until the end of the year, with more people being added to the database.
The people who have so far received the $180 included vendors and those from the informal sector whose sources of income have been affected by the national lockdown, Mavima said.

Govt To Increase Allowances To The Vulnerable To $300 In June

The government will start distributing cash meant for vulnerable households identified to be in need by the social welfare ministry today, The Herald reports.
A million households are set to benefit from the ZWL $600 million cushioning allowance that was set aside for that sore purpose by the government which announced that the cushioning allowance will run for 3 months.
The development was further confirmed by the Social welfare Deputy Minister Mr Matuke who said;
<blockquote>The names of the beneficiaries have been sent to the network providers to effect the payments. The money should start reflecting in their mobile phones starting on Wednesday (today).
There was a bit of some delay because there was duplication of names, for instance, one name can appear in Mabvuku and Mufakose, so we were scanning those names to ensure that they appear once in the database. The scanning process took a bit of time</blockquote>
Ecocash, on the other hand, has communicated that it will waive charges for COVID-19 transactions.

Cash Transfers To Vulnerable Households To Start Today - Government

The government has approved a $200 once-off cushioning allowance for needy people in urban areas to mitigate the effects of the 21-day national lockdown.
This was announced on Tuesday by Public Service, Labour and Social Welfare minister <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Paul_Mavima" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Paul Mavima</a> in a post-Cabinet media briefing in Harare. Said Mavima:
<blockquote>We are taking those really disadvantaged as a result of the lockdown, especially in urban areas. Our target is one million.
It will be $200 per individual, so if there are four people at a particular household, they will get $800.</blockquote>
The government has partnered with <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/OneWallet" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">OneMoney</a>, a mobile money transfer platform operated by a mobile network operator, NetOne to disburse the money to the beneficiaries.
Negotiations between the government and Telecash and <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/EcoCash" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">EcoCash</a>, mobile money platforms owned by Telecel Zimbabwe and Eocash Zimbabwe respectively, to rope them into the exercise are ongoing.
Mavima also revealed that homeless people in Harare were now being housed in different facilities that include Jamaica Inn, Mt Hampden and Beatrice Centre.

Harare City Council Workers Awarded $300 Cushioning Allowance

Tongaat Hulett Zimbabwe (THZ) has given its workers nearly 200 per cent cost of living adjustment allowance with effect from August 1, 2019.
This was revealed in an internal memo from the company’s acting chief executive Aiden Mhere. He said that the allowances are being granted at the company’s sole discretion. He said:
<blockquote>In order to further cushion employees from the impact of the ongoing economic challenges, I am pleased to announce that the company has increased the non-pensionable cost of living allowance granted in June 2019 to all current employees with effect from August 1, 2019.
The new allowances are being granted at the company’s sole discretion on, a without prejudice, basis.</blockquote>
Mhere further stated that employees in grade A and B will be awarded a cushion allowance of 196 per cent while those in grade C and D will get a 191 per cent allowance, while those in D3 and above grades will get 175 per cent cost of living allowance.
The development was welcomed by Workers representatives, Zimbabwe Sugar and Milling Industry Workers’ Union secretary-general Retired Captain Faster Gono.
Gono expressed hope that company management will award workers salary adjustments in light of the prevailing economic hardships.

Tongaat Hulett Awards Workers 200% Cushioning Allowance

The Zimbabwe Nurses Association (ZINA) national executive on 20 July 2019 convened an ad hoc meeting which deliberated on nurses’ incapacitation due to the prevailing economic challenges.
The national executive issued a statement on Monday in which it noted Finance Minister Mthuli Ncube’s assertion that civil servants’ salaries are not adjusted in line with the interbank rate, but with inflation.
Having considered that, the ZINA national executive demanded that there should be an increase in members’ salaries which were originally contracted in USD, in line with the interbank rate.
The association said that it is concerned by the government’s delay in depositing cushion allowances which it offered on its own volition.
It urged its members to continue with flexible working hours until the government offers them meaningful remuneration.

Nurses Association Urges Govt To Deposit Cushioning Allowances

The Zimbabwe Congress of Trade Unions on Tuesday dismissed the government’s offer of a “cushioning allowance”, and characterised it as “modern-day slavery”.
In an interview with Zim Morning Post, ZCTU president, Peter Mutasa said that workers want a living wage, and not a “cushioning allowance”, a term that does not exist in the labour vocabulary.
Mutasa warned that the union will mobilise its members for industrial action in the coming days. He said:
<blockquote>We are not accepting modern-day slavery, industrial action is a solution starting from July 22 we will have a two day stay away and if we are not heard we will take it to the next stage.
Mthuli Ncube is a hypocrite, he acknowledges that he is not giving workers a living wage but hides with a cushion allowance which is not sustainable and not legal and unsustainable, this is what we call modern-day slavery.
… We have been saying this for some time now, we want a living wage for every worker either a US dollar or equivalent rate salary for every employee has not been listening, therefore, we are now going for industrial action.</blockquote>
On Monday, Finance and Economic Development Minister, Mthuli Ncube, promised civil servants a cushioning allowance and urged the private sector to follow suit. He said then:
<blockquote>We are going to make an announcement in terms of a cushioning allowance in the next weeks and industries may you to follow the suit and look after your employees.
We realized companies have been making these profits and we have been taking care of our shareholders but leaving out our employees.</blockquote>
