By A Correspondent | Ministry of Health under fire for not paying its contract workers for the 2018 ART census.

ART stands for Anti retro viral treatment.

Over 500 employees are wallowing dry without their dues ever since.

Most Zimbabweans are at present struggling to survive not only due to the-year-long pandemic, but also due to a crashing economy which has not recovered since the 1st August 2018 when Zimbabwe lost USD16 billion in investments according to economy-data from the Finance Ministry.

The affected workers come from hospitals across the country. The census was conducted for over a 2 month period and the employees worked round the clock without a penny.

ZimEye was at the time of writing, still awaiting for a comment from the Ministry Of Health over the matter.
