Civil servants doubt govt promise to pay their bonuses

CIVIL servants yesterday said they will treat the 2015 bonus payment schedule, recently announced by government, with scepticism, claiming the message had not yet been properly communicated to them.

Apex Council president, Richard Gundane said government should have directly communicated with civil servants’ representatives than convey the message through the media.

Finance minister Patrick Chinamasa told State media on Wednesday that the government had come up with dates for the payment of civil servants starting with the Zimbabwe Defence Forces this month, Zimbabwe Republic Police and Zimbabwe Prisons and Correctional Services as well as the health sector in March, followed by the education sector in April and lastly the rest of the civil servants in May.

Gundane told a local publication that they will seek clarity on the dates when they meet as National Joint Negotiating Council on February 10.
