We have gone for more than 4 months without getting salaries in Shurugwi Town Council.

We have gone for more than 4 months without getting salaries in Shurugwi Town Council.

 

 

 

 

The new town secretary, Mr Archibald Ncube and the Town Chairman, Mr Machiya have become a very dangerous combination for the town Council.

 

The new Secretary works in Shurugwi but drives to and from Zvishavane every day, using a council vehicle and at the Council's expense. He has claimed well over $7000 in Traveling and subsistence (T and S) in the few months he has been in office.

 

 

 

 

He is hardly seen at work. He was in Harare the whole week, at today, he is driving straight to Zvishavane to join Mr Machiya the council chairman. The chairman signed for $1900 today asT and S for the Masvingo trip.

 

There is a council kombi whose tender processing was done unscrupulously. The Town secretary is renovating a Council house meant for him, for more than $10 000, which was not budgeted for and is enough to pay more than 50 of us.

 

 

 

 

Our workmates in the plumbing department, have to attend to fauls, walking for several kilometers on foot because their service vehicle is now being used by Ncube.

 

 

 

 

Most, if not all workers are now fully supportive of the few councilors who wrote to the Minister of Local gvt saying that they don't want Ncube as the T.S because 2 municipalities including Tongogara Dist council refused him.

 

 

 

 

 

We used to ask our Financial Director as to when we can be paid; but he has since been far distanced from most of the financial issues. Wotoshaya kuti Financial Director anoita basa rei chaiko.

 

May the powers that be save us.

Mhuri dzafa nenzara.

 

Vamwe we are lodgers.

Apa vana kuzvikoro.

 

These two monsters should go!

Workers’ Compensation Lawyer: What Injured Employees Need to Know

A workplace injury can create financial stress quickly. Medical bills, missed work, physical pain, and uncertainty about job security can make the situation overwhelming. Workers’ compensation is designed to help employees who are injured on the job, but claims do not always go smoothly.

rnrn

Workers’ compensation may cover medical treatment, partial wage replacement, rehabilitation, and disability benefits, depending on the injury and state law. In many cases, employees do not have to prove the employer was negligent. However, they usually must show that the injury happened in the course of employment.

rnrn

The first step after a workplace injury is to report it as soon as possible. Many states have strict deadlines for notifying an employer. Waiting too long can make a claim more difficult.

rnrn

Medical documentation is also important. Injured workers should seek appropriate medical care and follow treatment instructions. Keep copies of medical records, work restrictions, prescriptions, and appointment notes.

rnrn

A workers’ compensation lawyer may be helpful if the claim is denied, benefits are delayed, the employer disputes that the injury happened at work, or the worker is pressured to return before they are medically ready. Legal help may also be useful if the injury causes permanent disability or requires long-term treatment.

rnrn

Some employees worry about retaliation. Employers generally cannot legally punish an employee for filing a valid workers’ compensation claim, but rules vary by state. If an employee believes they are being treated unfairly because of a claim, they should document what happened and speak with a qualified professional.

rnrn

Workers’ compensation settlements can be complicated. A settlement may close part or all of a claim, including future medical benefits. Before accepting any settlement, injured workers should understand what rights they may be giving up.

rnrn

Every state has different workers’ compensation laws, forms, deadlines, and benefit calculations. That is why general online information is not a substitute for legal advice.

rnrn

If you are injured at work, report the injury, get medical care, document everything, and ask questions early. A workers’ compensation lawyer can help explain the process and protect your interests if the claim becomes disputed.
