ZFTU Warns of Worker Exploitation

Zimbabwe’s largest trade union federation, the ZFTU, says workers are under siege from politically connected elites, military figures and foreign investors accused of exploiting labor. Secretary-general Kennias Shamuyarira warned of political capture of the labor market. He is singling out Chinese-owned Dinson Iron & Steel for alleged rights abuses. The union says Vision 2030 growth is unsustainable without decent wages and protections, while Dinson denies the allegations.
