Companies which ate into and fired over 500 workers at the weekend have been named as they were described by news readers as “silly”.
More than 500 workers have been fired in Zimbabwe since last Friday following a Supreme Court ruling that companies can terminate employees’ contracts without offering benefits.
According to media reports and the Zimbabwe Congress of Trade Unions, companies that have terminated workers’ contracts include Croco Motors, Pelhams, and TN Harlequin Nesteward Bank, which have given the affected workers a month’s notice to cut ties with them as per the court ruling.
There was no immediate reaction from these companies.
ZCTU president, George Nkiwane, told Studio 7 they held a meeting Tuesday with government officials in an effort to address the crisis.
But Busisa Moyo, president of the Confederation of Zimbabwe Industries, said the figure of workers who have lost their jobs is being exaggerated.
Constitutional law expert, Lovemore Madhuku, who represented Zuva Petroleum workers in the Supreme Court case, told Studio 7 that they will appeal against the Supreme Court ruling at the Constitutional Court.-VOA

Lets just boycott their products, they will be more human in the future.
Hey folks,
How much money was spent by the two Zuva Managers to fight to remain in a company that they don’t own? Chisi chako masimba mashoma. If they are this desperate for work let them vend like anybody else. Or let them stay their own companies. What happened to the adage “ukapinda basa chasara kubuda” or to the saying “kama wakaringe nzira mombe yekuronzerwa “? Haa varume don’t be cry babies mhani. Mungachemere basa munzvimbo isiri yenyu? Kuchemerera mari yekukamurirwa varume! Hamuchadiwa ka. Why don’t you go in peace? Mucheche na madhuku vanodhura. Manyudzwa futi ipapa apa. Don’t fight Zuva. Fight yourselves. Bvisai mamuri dhimoni reuranda. Unochemei hezvo hausi pambudyo. Mukai mamuri varumewee. You were too comfortable in there. Now you’re out. Come let’s vend together or lets fight together……. Munoda chipi Apa?
