Unions representing workers in Zimbabwe say Workers’ Day or Labour Day, has turned into a day to lament their “slavery” because of poor pay and working conditions.
In separate interviews with <a href="https://www.newsday.co.zw/local-news/article/200026323/workers-day-turned-into-slave-day">NewsDay</a>, workers’ unions said the commemorations had lost meaning as employees live from hand to mouth.
Zimbabwe Congress for Trade Unions (ZCTU) national organiser, Michael Kandukutu, said:
<blockquote>
We used to have Workers Day celebrations maybe 15 years ago but now it is just commemorations of employees’ problems. It is a lamentation day for workers’ problems.
Working has failed to transform the lives of workers. We have workers who cannot afford what they are producing.
</blockquote>
Progressive Teachers Union of Zimbabwe secretary-general Raymond Majongwe said:
<blockquote>
As far as we are concerned salaries have gone down, conditions of service have not improved and it’s indeed an insult to us.
As far as we are concerned, May Day is a day we are supposed to celebrate, but we cannot celebrate slavery.
</blockquote>
Zimbabwe Union of Journalists secretary-general Perfect Hlongwane said:
<blockquote>
It’s a pity that journalists should be celebrating Workers Day, a day we look back and take stock of what has been achieved but if you do a scan of the environment or what is obtaining on the ground you will realise that journalists are some of the people who are least paid in the country.
This has taken away the professionalism that we are supposed to see in the sector. Sadly, nothing is being done to fix the issue of remuneration.
</blockquote>
Zimbabwe Confederation of Public Sector Trade Unions chairperson, David Dzatsunga, said:
<blockquote>
In other countries when you are in public service, working for the government you are up there in terms of earnings but in Zimbabwe it’s different, we have become a laughing stock.
</blockquote>
Zimbabwe Association for Doctors for Human Rights (ZADHR) said:
<blockquote>
In commemorating this day, ZADHR laments the state of our public health delivery system and the exposure of health professionals to harm in their line of duty.
For years, health workers in Zimbabwe have clamoured for a healthy service and healthy workplace that promotes and protects their rights through strengthening infection control protocols and associated provisions for infection control such as personal protective equipment.
</blockquote>
The Federation of Zimbabwe Educators Unions (FOZEU) urged trade unions to unite in the fight for better wages for all workers. Said FOZEU:
<blockquote>
FOZEU, therefore, calls for the immediate creation of a viable alternative platform genuinely representing the hopes and aspirations of workers.
Progressive unions in and outside the ZCTU are urged to come together and create a genuine labour centre for the workers of Zimbabwe and give the workers another fighting chance.

Zimbabwean Workers Says Labour Day Has Transformed Into Slavery Day

A suspended police officer and his niece have been convicted of trafficking three women to Oman where they were turned into sex slaves.
According to <a href="https://www.hmetro.co.zw/suspended-cop-jailed-for-trafficking-women-to-oman/">H-Metro</a>, Forward Mashonganyika and his niece, Tendai Muswe, were convicted after a full trial by Harare regional magistrate Estere Chivasa on Wednesday, 06 March.
Muswe is currently serving three years in prison for a similar offence.
In her ruling, magistrate Chivasa said the State had proved their case beyond reasonable doubt.
The magistrate said the three women proved to be credible witnesses. She said:
<blockquote>
Besides facilitating the trafficking from Zimbabwe to Oman, the other issue is that there must be evidence of deceitfulness. Several things aren’t in dispute.
According to their defence, the three women stayed at Mashonganyika’s place of residence once and it’s not in dispute that they travelled to Oman.
They were excited to fly for the first time and, when they flew, they believed they were flying to Dubai to work in hotels and restaurants. It’s not in dispute that they went to Oman, not Dubai.
</blockquote>
The magistrate said the trafficked women were enslaved, assaulted, denied food and salaries, denied rest, and sexually assaulted in Oman before being deported to Zimbabwe. She said:
<blockquote>
It’s not in dispute that they were allocated to work as slaves and none of the two is denying that they were enslaved, assaulted, denied food and salaries, denied rest, sexually assaulted and deported back to Zimbabwe.
The only thing in dispute is whether they facilitated their trafficking to Oman and they denied any involvement, but the State led evidence from several witnesses and I listened carefully to how they were linking the duo to the trafficking.
The evidence was cemented by that of the investigating officer through whom documents of money they received from Mohamed Ali in Oman were tendered.
</blockquote>
There are several harrowing tales of Zimbabwean women who were trafficked to Oman after being promised a brighter future in the Middle East.

Suspended Police Officer Jailed For Trafficking Women To Oman

The Government says it plans to repatriate more Zimbabweans who are stranded in Oman, an Arab country located in Western Asia.
The Zimbabwean nationals, the majority of who were females, were lured into slavery through false promises of well-paying domestic work in Oman.
Speaking to <a href="https://www.sundaymail.co.zw/govt-to-repatriate-more-nationals-stuck-in-oman">The Sunday Mail</a>, Home Affairs and Cultural Heritage permanent secretary Major-General (retired) Dr. Gerald Gwinji said 107 women and men were repatriated from Middle Eastern country.
However, according to the Government’s database, about 21 Zimbabweans remain stranded in the country. Said Gwinji:
<blockquote>
In response to distress calls made by victims of trafficking in Oman, the Government of Zimbabwe allocated resources through Treasury for the repatriation of 107 Zimbabwean nationals.
Of the people repatriated back to Zimbabwe, 105 were female and two were male.
There have been several reports of Zimbabweans who have fallen victim to traffickers.
Using information extracted from the reports, a WhatsApp platform was created to facilitate coordination and to have an appreciation of the number of victims of human trafficking and, as of December 2022, at least 128 people have been trafficked to Oman, with the majority having been repatriated by Government.
Furthermore, Government is considering carrying out the second phase of the repatriation exercise to bring back stranded Zimbabwean nationals in our database.
… A total of 69 cases of trafficking in persons (TIP) involving 139 victims of trafficking were recorded and investigated.
Seven suspects were arrested for TIP in 2022 and are currently in custody pending trial, while three were arrested for domestic trafficking cases.
</blockquote>
<h2>Suspected human trafficker on the run</h2>
Police have since launched a manhunt for Jacqueline Takure, nee Chikukwa (45) who is wanted for questioning in connection with suspected human trafficking.
In 2022, Takure allegedly posed as an employment agent and misrepresented to five people that she could facilitate their employment in well-paying hotels in Dubai.
She then facilitated the travel of the victims to Oman where they had their passports confiscated by her accomplices on arrival.
<h2>Kafala System</h2>
Most Gulf nations enforce the kafala labour system. According to <a href="https://www.cfr.org/backgrounder/what-kafala-system">the Council on Foreign Relations</a>, the system gives private citizens and companies in Jordan, Lebanon, and most Arab Gulf countries almost total control over migrant workers’ employment and immigration status.
The kafala system resembles a form of indirect slavery, making it harder for migrants to escape such dreadful situations, <a href="https://sites.bu.edu/pardeeatlas/opinions/op-ed-the-kafala-sponsorship-system-fuels-modern-day-slavery/#:~:text=This%20corrupt%20strategy%20resembles%20a,for%20contemporary%20modern%2Dday%20slavery.">according to a report</a>.
Female domestic workers who attempt to run away reportedly fall victim to sex traffickers.

Govt Plans To Repatriate More Zimbabweans Stuck In Oman

A 25-year-old woman from Marondera was allegedly trafficked to Oman in April by an unknown Zimbabwean man who had promised her a good-paying job.
Police said the suspect made all the arrangements for the woman to travel to the Middle Eastern country and he is now demanding to be reimbursed.
The man is reportedly abusing his victim and demanding to be paid US$1 800 which he claims he used to cover the woman’s travelling expenses. The ZRP said:
<blockquote>
The ZRP is investigating a case of human trafficking where a Marondera woman (25) was lured to travel to Oman by an unknown Zimbabwean who promised her employment in April 2022.
The suspect, who arranged the travelling logistics, is reportedly abusing the victim in the foreign country, threatening her to refund the US$1800 that he claims to have used for the victim’s travelling expenses.
</blockquote>
Meanwhile, <a href="https://zero.pindula.co.zw/marondera-woman-arrested-for-human-trafficking/">a 35-year-old woman from Marondera was arrested on allegations of trafficking two women to Oman in April this year.</a>
Farisai Mupeti appeared before a Harare magistrate facing charges of human trafficking after she allegedly lured two Zimbabweans to Oman where they were enslaved.
The trafficked women were identified as Murriam Zihumo and Isabel Mushoriwa who were both tricked into believing that they had found lucrative jobs in Dubai only to find themselves in slavery in Oman.

Job-seeking Marondera Woman (25) "Enslaved" In Oman

A Zimbabwean domestic worker was allegedly sexually exploited by her employers in Pretoria, South Africa before she was summarily fired.
According to the United Domestic Workers of South Africa (UDWOSA), the members of the family the Zimbabwean woman was working for allegedly used her as a slave and an object for their sexual pleasures.
She was also made to work from Monday to Sunday including public holidays and was underpaid.
UDWOSA said the husband, wife and one of their sons who are all from Saudi Arabia, sexually harassed and abused the woman in their home in Pretoria.
The Zimbabwean domestic worker was employed by the family in 2019. She said from 2020 to 2021 she has been called by the wife to her bedroom on numerous occasions when her husband and other children were not home and be forced to massage her genitals with olive oil.
She also revealed other incidents of sexual harassment by other members of the family which to date have left her traumatised.
The domestic worker was dismissed on 24 August 2022 when the family said they are going back to their country.
UDWOSA said some local and foreign employers take advantage of especially desperate migrant labourers and abuse them. It said:
<blockquote>
These employers use this precarious position and vulnerability of the desperate migrants to super-exploit them i.e. have them work for longer hours for extremely meagre compensation. In other instances like this one, they take advantage and sexually abuse them.
</blockquote>
The union has reportedly taken steps for justice and legal recourse for the domestic worker in the Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration (CCMA) for the unfair dismissal.
UDWOSA is said to have reported the woman’s employers to the South African Police Service (SAPS) for sexual abuse.
The South African Federation of Trade Unions (SAFTU) has demanded justice for the domestic worker. It said:
<blockquote>
The employers should not be let free, and the husband and wife who employed her must be fined and sentenced to prison in accordance with correct legal prescripts that deals with sexual assault.
The law must protect the vulnerable against the rich and powerful.

Zim Domestic Worker Used As Sex Slave, Exploited And Dismissed

Turkey’s ambassador to Zimbabwe Berna Kasnakli Versteden has dismissed reports that Zimbabweans were being trafficked to her country as labour and sex slaves.
Versteden spoke about the human trafficking reports on Tuesday during a courtesy call to the Speaker of the National Assembly Jacob Mudenda.
This follows a report by NewsDay in June this year which claimed that scores of Zimbabweans were stranded in Turkey after they were trafficked there on false job promises.
Turkey’s top diplomat in Zimbabwe said the allegations were false, adding that Ankara and Harare enjoyed cordial relations. She said:
<blockquote>
We have done the necessary steps regarding such fake news and there are no such things as such and we have issued a statement on that.
The co-operation on scholarships is continuing. We are receiving more applications all the time every year.
</blockquote>
However, a recent United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime report indicates that Turkey is a top destination for victims of human trafficking. | <a href="https://www.newsday.co.zw/local-news/article/200000465/turkey-denies-human-trafficking-reports">NewsDay</a>
