Zimbabwe sets domestic workers minimum wage at US$90

Zimbabwe's cabinet has introduced a new minimum wage structure, setting domestic workers' pay at US$90 per month, while unclassified operations workers will earn US$270. This move targets those outside the National Employment Councils' wage negotiations. The new rates are effective immediately, aiming to provide fairer compensation for a significant portion of the workforce. This change could help address income inequality and improve living standards for many domestic workers, reflecting broader efforts to enhance labor conditions in the country.
