ZIMBABWE: Trade unionists say that President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s government snubbed organised labour as it “met everyone” during his first 100 days in office.

The Zimbabwe Congress of Trade Unions (ZCTU) said the government made no attempt to talk to unions, either in the formal or the very large informal sectors of the economy.

The ZCTU warned that Mr Mnangagwa’s administration was determined to pursue neoliberal economic policies, including introducing austerity measures and attacking workers’ rights.
