The Zimbabwe Tourism Authority (ZTA) has reversed its
decision to fire 35 employees after the Retrenchment Board ruled that
procedures were not followed.
Correspondence to affected employees seen by The Herald
last night says the employees should report for work with immediate effect.
The employees had been sacked early this month as the
tourism promotion body claimed it wanted to streamline its operations in line
with a skills audit.
But in a sensational U-turn yesterday, the ZTA human
resources department spent the day sending WhatsApp messages to affected
employees notifying them to report for work immediately.
Reads part of the message: “Following a retrenchment
exercise that began in July 2019, all staff members are being notified that the
affected employees are being recalled to assume duty with immediate effect
contrary to the letter which they had signed on notice of retrenchment.
“This has been necessitated by the need to correct
procedural issues as raised by the Retrenchment Board.”
An e-mail was also sent to directors and heads of
department, notifying them about the recalling of recently sacked employees.
