Challenges to CB In Zimbabwe (continued)
Collective bargaining has collapsed mainly due to the crisis period
Of 1997 - 2008, a period characterised by:
▸ State repression and restrictive laws like POSA
State interference in court of law procedures, since some disputes were
labelled political.
▸ Delays in delivering judgement by courts of law
▸ Reliance on the courts rather than CB means the system has collapsed
▸ A weak and fragmented trade union movement has also led to collapse of CB
as they fail to confront the employers
▸ Hyperinflation (pre 2008) and the impact of the financial crisis that affected
most quarters of the world economies
▸ CB is also hard in a de industrialising economy where rate of unemployment
is more than 90%
CB in Zimbabwe seem to be mainly centred more on wage negotiation
