By Own Correspondent|Government and civil servants’ representatives are in a crunch meeting in the Capital Harare today in talks aimed at resolving the issue of salaries.

During the last meeting to be held between the two parties, the government tabled a $300 million offer which the civil servants rejected.

The workers are demanding a $1 733 salary for the least paid worker, up from $414.

Government workers had initially issued a 14-day strike notice which ended on Friday. They, however, opted against striking instead, choosing to give negotiations a chance.

The Apex Council chairperson Cecilia Alexander told State Media that her association had not yet declared a strike and was expecting the government to improve on its former.-StateMedia
