REVIMO has suspended the contracts of approximately 1,380 toll gate employees due to financial losses of 655 million Meticais following post-election violence. The suspensions impact direct workers at vandalized toll gates and support services, while salaries have been paid up to February 2023. Only four of the 16 toll plazas remain operational, but REVIMO hopes to reinstate affected workers once stability returns.
In Mozambique, REVIMO has suspended the contracts of approximately 1,380 employees due to financial losses stemming from post-election tensions. These suspensions, which went into effect on March 1st, were necessary after REVIMO reported losses totaling 655 million Meticais.
Out of the affected employees, around 380 were directly working at the vandalized toll gates, while nearly 1,000 provided services to REVIMO. Currently, only four out of the 16 toll plazas managed by REVIMO remain operational.
The contracts suspended do not only involve direct toll gate workers; ancillary services such as surveillance and cleaning have also been impacted, totaling 1,004 employees. Despite these challenges, REVIMO assures that all affected employees received their salaries up to February and anticipates reinstating them once the situation stabilizes.
In summary, REVIMO’s decision to suspend approximately 1,380 employee contracts reflects the financial strain it is experiencing due to significant losses from post-election violence. While this has resulted in widespread impact on various services, REVIMO maintains its commitment to compensating employees and hopes for a resolution that will restore operations and employment.
