LABOUR and Social Security Minister Brenda Tambatamba has called for a huge turn out from both the public and private sector ahead of International Labour day celebrations which falls today.
Ms. Tambatamba in an interview said as workers celebrate Labour Day, there was need for them to demonstrate peace and unity both in the public and private sector.
“We are expecting a huge turnout both from the public and private sector. We know what to expect as a public sector but we want the private sector to turn up in numbers and celebrate their day.
Turn out in huge numbers to demonstrate the hard work, peace and unity. In fact there is a real expansion in the private sector,’’ Ms Tambatamba said.
Ms. Tambatamba also stated that her ministry was expecting workers to celebrate their day because it was the day the nation focused on them.
“We expect the workers to come and celebrate their day. This is the day the nation focuses on them and let them enjoy as they continue to work hard.
Even those lucky ones who are contributing to the growth of the gross domestic product that we all expect,’’ she said.
Ms. Tambatamba urged every worker to participate and celebrate as they show solidarity and demonstrate hard work to the government to reckon with.
