The National Social Security Authority (NSSA) acting general manager, Charles Shava, said that the deduction of pension contributions from civil servants’ US dollar salary component will continue over the next two months.
This deduction, which was implemented retroactively from January 2024, began in June under the direction of the Public Service Commission.
Speaking during a session of the IPEC/NSSA Journalists Mentorship Programme for 2024 last week, Shava said (via <a href="https://www.newsday.co.zw/business/article/200029101/backdated-pension-deductions-in-civil-servants-us-salaries-to-continue">NewsDay</a>):
<blockquote>
The law says contributions to NSSA will be based on the currency of income so if an organisation is paying its employees in US dollars their contribution to NSSA will be in US dollars. If it is paying in ZWG, their contributions will be in ZWG.
The particular issue of civil servants emanated from the fact that with effect from January this year, the US$300 was converted to a salary and by that operation their contribution to NSSA, because it became salary, had to be contributed to US$.
So, as NSSA, we wrote to the Public Service Commission informing them of the need to align with the SI [statutory instrument] which was passed by the government which the Public Service ministry confirmed with another SI to make sure that those deductions are done properly in US$ as per the law.
</blockquote>
The PSC opted to spread out the pension contribution deductions over a two-month period to minimize the financial impact on civil servants, as the deductions were applied retroactively from January 2024. Said Shava:
<blockquote>
That is an issue between the Public Service Commission and employees in government. So, as NSSA, we really don’t have anything that we could do or not do except just to enforce the law by making sure that contributions from the public service are done in the correct currency as per the law.
This is from January 2024. This does not affect the private sector. I think their systems are working well. Those that are paying in ZWG are paying and those who are paying in ZWG are paying so we don’t have problems with the private sector. This is only for the public service.
</blockquote>
In June, civil servants, such as teachers took home net salaries of about US$270 down from US$320 following the deductions.
Trade unions representing public service workers condemned the move by the Government to deduct their USD salaries for their pension contributions, describing it as “fraudulent”.
Progressive Teachers Union of Zimbabwe (PTUZ) secretary-general Raymond Majongwe wrote to the PSC challenging the decision and said they were alarmed “by such callous unilateralism intended to further impoverish civil servants.”
NSSA has a long history of shortchanging pensioners amid allegations of corruption and poor management at the Authority.

NSSA To Continue Backdated Pension Deductions From Civil Servants' US Dollar Salaries

Award-winning journalist Hopewell Chin’ono says Zimbabweans are dying prematurely because the majority do not have pensions benefits.
Chin’ono said that millions of Zimbabweans that do menial jobs in South Africa and in other countries, as well as millions of others at home, do not have pensions.
He argued that as a result, in old age, most people will not have access to healthcare, especially those who do not have kids to look after them, thus leading to premature death.
Chin’ono says Zimbabwe’s dysfunctional economy and high rate of employment mean that millions will never be formally employed in their lives and won’t have pensions in old age. <a href="https://twitter.com/daddyhope/status/1679047238775914496?s=20">He said</a>:
<blockquote>
Most people in Zimbabwe are dying miserable deaths because if they have no kids to look after them, they won’t be able to afford the most basic thing they need the most in old age, HEALTH CARE.
I have observed that many Zimbabweans pay towards their funeral plan instead of their pensions.
This has been caused by a dead economy and a pension system that is not worth the paper it is written on.
Politicians running for office should talk more about these issues because they affect everyone, young and old.
The millions of Zimbabweans that do menial jobs in South Africa and beyond don’t have pensions.
You can’t have a country without a pension system, but that is what Zimbabwe has become.
That is why I always ask our politicians to engage in the substantive issues that affect us the people who will vote.
PENSIONS are one of the key issues that must be talked about at every rally or in every interview.
Zimbabweans are being sent early to their graves because they don’t have pensions.
Do you have a pension? If you don’t, why not? The politicians running for office should address that fundamental issue that is actually a human right for anyone who has ever worked!
Without a pension, you will have a miserable and painful end unless your kids look after you.
The tragedy is that my generation will have kids that have never worked their whole life. It is a double tragedy!!!

Zimbabweans Dying Miserably, Prematurely Because They Have No Pensions, Says Chin'ono

The National Social Security Authority (NSSA) has pledged to pay pensioners part of their monthly pension in US dollars to cushion them against runaway inflation.
NSSA said pensioners will receive the money through mobile money services or their banks. It said:
<blockquote>
NSSA beneficiaries will receive a portion of their monthly pension in US dollars for June. ​​​
Beneficiaries with Econet lines will have the choice of receiving the US dollar component through Ecocash or their usual bank accounts.
</blockquote>
Zimbabwe’s unending economic crisis has thrown pensioners deeper into poverty as their meagre monthly payouts in Zimbabwean dollars are gobbled by inflation.
The majority of pensioners cannot afford to buy food and medication due to soaring prices and rising inflation.
Pensioner Veronica Gundano (74), told <a href="https://www.timeslive.co.za/news/africa/2023-05-25-zimbabwean-pensioners-to-receive-part-of-monthly-pension-in-us-dollars-to-cushion-against-inflation/">TimesLIVE </a>that pensioners are struggling to make ends meet. She said:
<blockquote>
The cost of everything has gone up. l can’t even buy groceries or my medication with my monthly pension of ZWL$40,000 [R2,137]. Pensioners are living [in] poverty and we are struggling.
Receiving a portion of my monthly pension in US dollars will be helpful, but the government still needs to do much more to lift pensioners out of poverty.
</blockquote>
Economist Victor Bhoroma welcomed the move by NSSA to pay pensioners part of their monthly pension in US dollars. He said:
<blockquote>
NSSA has been receiving contributions from its members in foreign currency for some time. Close to 160 000 pensioners are on the NSSA payroll.
The majority of these are wallowing in extreme poverty due to high levels of inflation in the local currency.
As such, the move will help alleviate poverty, cover the gap left void by disintegrated social safety nets and improve buying power for pensioners.

NSSA To Pay Part Of Monthly Pensions In US Dollars

Retired National Railways of Zimbabwe (NRZ) workers are reportedly receiving a monthly pension payout equivalent to around US$3 per month.
One pensioner who spoke to <a href="https://www.newzimbabwe.com/nrz-pensioners-earning-us3-monthly-pay-outs/">NewZimbabwe.com</a> on Wednesday on condition of anonymity claimed the National Railways of Zimbabwe Contributory Pension Fund (NRZCPF) is paying out ZWL$3 000 per month. Said the pensioner:
<blockquote>
Early this year the pension payouts were increased from around ZWL$2 000 to ZWL$3 000 which is not even enough to purchase more than US$3.
The worst part is that one needs ZWL$1 000 to travel to the bank if you are based in urban centres and even much more for those residing in rural areas.
This added to high bank charges makes it senseless to even think of withdrawing the money.
What boggles the mind is that employees working for these pension funds are sitting pretty, enjoying hefty packages from our sweat.
</blockquote>
The pensioner said NRZCPF took advantage of Statutory Instrument 33 of 2016 which introduced the Zimbabwe dollar as the sole currency. He said:
<blockquote>
So since then, a pensioner who was earning US$400 was automatically paid ZWL$400 and despite the changes which took place thereafter we did not factor in.
</blockquote>
Contacted for comment on the matter, NRZCPF board chairperson, Takunda Madanha said:
<blockquote>
I will not comment on the figures being paid out, but we know that the payouts are too little for now.
Pensioners also need to appreciate that we are basing the payouts on a defined pension contribution scheme under which what is paid for is a result of what one invested.
There are three factors that contribute to this; your last pensionable salary, the duration of your service and the savings you made.
</blockquote>
He said pensioners should understand that contributions made in the GNU era were much higher which explains the differences in current payouts. He added:
<blockquote>
We are however trying to improve the situation by collecting rentals from our properties but again we are dogged by rising void spaces and low rentals which have high defaults.

NRZ Pensioners Earning US$3 Monthly Payouts | Report

The National Social Security Authority (NSSA) says it will award pensioners part of their bonuses in United States dollars this December.
It added that the difference for all pensioners will be paid in Zimbabwe dollars.
In a statement, NSSA said it is in the process of opening Nostro Accounts for its pensioners. It said:
<blockquote>
Good news all NSSA pensioners! You will be paid 13th cheque bonuses this December. We are in the process of opening Nostro Accounts with your respective banks and you can begin to access your money by the 16th of December.
</blockquote>
NSSA said retirement pensioners will be paid US$30, other pensioners will get US$20 and those receiving shared pensions will share the bonuses equally.
It also said pensioners under the Accident Prevention and Worker’s Compensation scheme (APWCS) will be paid up to a maximum of US$35, subject to one’s entitlement. | <a href="https://www.chronicle.co.zw/nssa-awards-part-us-dollar-pension-bonuses/">Chronicle</a>

NSSA Pledges To Award Part USD Pension Bonuses

Secretary for Media, Information and Broadcasting Services Mr George Charamba denied reports that former President, Robert Mugabe got US$10 million plus other retirement benefits as a precondition for his resignation.
Charamba said that Mugabe’s retirement package is yet to be worked out by the Civil Service Commission will be in terms of the Constitution. Said Charamba:
<blockquote>The military were not a substitute for civilian authority. They never intended to overthrow Constitutional authority. So, you cannot then suggest that they were cutting deals with the outgone President without implying that they were now the new Constitutional authority of the land, but, more importantly, without also implying that they had overthrown the Constitution, which is a matter of fact, stipulates the entitlement of a sitting President when he retires.
The package of the former President will be in terms of the laws of the land and will be worked out by the Civil Service Commission, not by generals, not by negotiators, not by the previous Head of State. After all, we are not in a unique position by way of having a retired Statesman or President. We had that experience towards the end of the 1980s when President Banana retired. A package was done for him in terms of the law.</blockquote>

Govt speaks on Mugabe's retirement package

Management of the Zimbabwe United Passengers Company (Zupco) ordered security to lock out former employees at the company’s Bulawayo depot. The employees who were demonstrating are demanding their terminal benefits and pensions after some going back as far as 1982. Some of the employees claim that they are yet to receive anything despite being retrenched just after indepedndence. Others were retrenched between 1982- 2010.
Former Zupco national workers’ union chairperson, Lucas Munyika said:
<blockquote>We will sit here even if they have locked us outside the company, which shows that they are not interested to hear us and are not willing to assist us.
They are making us look stupid, but we will not leave this place for the next two days. We want the chief executive officer, Zion Muwoni to come and address us or send someone with authority to talk to us over our concerns.
If they fail to address us over these three days, we will take it further until our concerns are addressed.</blockquote>
