Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>Bulawayo City Council-owned Ingwebu Breweries has fired scores of workers over the past several months for drinking alcohol during working hours and theft.<\/p>\n

This was revealed in Ingwebu Breweries\u2019 quarterly report that was presented by board chairperson, Thandaza Masiye-Moyo.<\/p>\n

He was responding to queries by Bulawayo city councillors on the reported huge staff turnover at the company.<\/p>\n

The report said Ward 22 Councillor, Rodney Jele wanted Ingwebu management to explain the endless hirings and firings, saying the reports were tainting the company\u2019s image. Read the report:<\/p>\n

In response to the sentiments and concerns raised, the managing director (Mr Dumisani Mhlanga) explained that Ingwebu had 60 per cent, permanent employees.<\/p>\n

The other 40 per cent of the staff were provided by third-party brokers as and when needed.<\/p>\n

When the company was not producing they stopped them because they were contract workers.<\/p>\n

He further added that there were two reasons for the dismissal of staff.<\/p>\n

The first one was drinking alcohol on work premises without permission.<\/p>\n

This was a standing rule that all the staff were aware of but somehow offenders were always caught during random spot checks.<\/p>\n

The report indicated that the majority of those fired for theft was working in the sales department. It said:<\/p>\n

When a staff member committed such crimes [theft], they were dismissed from the organisation.<\/p>\n

Keeping them would kill the very organisation they were trying to turn around.<\/p>\n

The information on fired staff and the reasons which they were fired was available.<\/p>\n

The Town Clerk (Mr Christopher Dube) further explained that he was aware of the allegations against Ingwebu Breweries.<\/p>\n

Some of the people circulating the allegations had been legally retrenched.<\/p>\n

He had held an extensive discussion with the managing director about the supposed hiring and firing and was satisfied with his response.<\/p>\n
