Government has approved a 100% salary increment for all civil servants, including the members of the security sector.
According to a letter dated March 16, 2023, from Finance ministry Permanent Secretary George Guvamatanga and addressed to the chairman of the Public Service Commission, Covid-19 allowances for civil servants have also been increased from US$200 to $250 across sectors, excluding the health sector.
Teachers will also receive a US$80 teaching allowance per month, a move that is expected to deal with discrepancies created for those with no biological children on the payment of school fees.
“Payment of US$80 teaching allowance to every teacher per month. This is an improvement to the school fees policy which discriminated against those with no biological children,” reads part of the letter.
The Covid-19 allowance for government pensioners has also been reviewed from US$90 to US$100.
Civil servants have been negotiating with their employer for some time, with the issue of salaries being top of the agenda.
