Zacc spokesperson John Makamure told NewsDay that the
closure of their Harare office was a temporary measure to prevent the spread of
the virus in line with the World Health Organisation protocols.
“The Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission wishes to advise
the public that the Commission has down-scaled its operations as a
precautionary measure against the rising COVID-19 infections,” Zacc said in a
statement yesterday.
“The commission has temporarily closed down its Golda,
Herbert Chitepo and Mount Pleasant Offices from July 5 until July 9, 2021. This
has been necessitated by a few positive cases recorded at these offices. The
closure will allow for fumigation and testing of staff members. Kindly take
note that Gweru and Bulawayo offices remain open.”
Makamure said staff members, who tested negative, would be
working from home. Government has ordered companies and public institutions to
decongest workplaces and operate with only a 40% staff complement to prevent
the spread of the pandemic.
The Judicial Service Commission last week closed seven
courts after some of its employees tested positive for the virus and pronounced
mandatory testing for all staff members. Newsday
