Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>The Government is set to table a fresh salary increment proposal when it meets civil servants\u2019 representatives on Wednesday, a cabinet minister has said.<\/p>\n

In an interview with The Sunday Mail, Public Service, Labour and Social Welfare Minister Paul Mavima said the Government will gradually raise civil servants\u2019 salaries to a point where they match their previous earnings in United States dollars. Said Mavima:<\/p>\n

We have our own position, but obviously, I cannot disclose it to the press before we meet with the employees.<\/p>\n

Whatever the outcome, we shall go back to Cabinet where the issue will be discussed. As the employer, we have the best interests of the civil servants at heart.<\/p>\n

We have always said that we are committed to their welfare as well as meeting their request for salaries to match the money they used to earn in US dollars.<\/p>\n

But it\u2019s a gradual process and considering the progress we have made as well as exchange rate stability; this is the year to consolidate on that progress.<\/p>\n

We are meeting them (civil servants) on Wednesday and we will listen to what they want from us.<\/p>\n

After the deliberations with the unions, we will then present the matter to Cabinet and pick it up from there.<\/p>\n

Zimbabwe Confederation of Public Sector Trade Unions (ZCPSTU) secretary-general David Dzatsunga also confirmed that they will meet Government representatives this week. He said:<\/p>\n

We are meeting on Wednesday and that\u2019s when we will be able to tell you the outcome.<\/p>\n

But our concerns are genuine and they are well documented, we hope the Government will hear our case.<\/p>\n
