Press Statements
The Zimbabwe Congress of Trade Unions (ZCTU) condemns in strongest terms the failure by responsible authorities to intervene and bring to an end the labour dispute that has engulfed Hwange Colliery Company.
Further to our Press Statement issued on 18 December 2017 on the current price hikes, the Zimbabwe Congress of Trade Unions (ZCTU) notes with concern that authorities are just making rhetoric and there is no progress in solving the issue.
The ZCTU has, therefore, resolved that if nothing tangible is done, it will activate its structures and come mid-January 2018, we will be calling for national action against both the Government and business.
The Zimbabwe Congress of Trade Unions (ZCTU) notes that while there were positive sides to the national budget presented by the Minister of Finance and Economic Development, Patrick Chinamasa, there is nothing for the working people to celebrate.

CABINET REThe cabinet reshuffle announced by President Robert Mugabe on Monday shows that Zimbabwe is heading for disaster both in terms of the economy and democracy ahead of the 2018 elections
Besides being bloated and duplication of Ministries, it is expecting too much from Ministers like Ignatius Chombo, (Minister of Finance and Economic Development) and Simbarashe Mumbengengwi, (Minister of Micro-Economic Planning and Investment Promotion) to revive the economy as they have no clue on what to do. In any case, these two ministries should have been combined into one.
