“There can be no salary increment than what the Patriotic Front Government has given us. The lowest worker will be getting K 1.5 million while the highest will be receiving K 7 million. We have been given additional money of between K 854, 000 and K 1.8 million on top of what we were getting,” he said.
Mr Mukosha said HWUZ is happy with the salary increment that Government has awarded its members.
“We are very happy with Government’s commitment to motivating and improving working conditions of health workers. We are excited, this is very good.
“I am short of words to describe how I am feeling right now. We have also been given 10 percent of the basic salary as transport allowance and 20 percent of basic pay as housing allowance,” Mr Mukosha said.
He appealed to health workers to continue working hard.
Mr Mukosha said HWUZ will continue working with Government to develop the health sector in the country.
He commended Government for its commitment to developing the health sector.
On Wednesday, Government awarded civil servants in the agricultural sector a 15 percent salary increment.
