| dc.description.abstract | Wages are a matter of concern and importance in every particular country. Good wages are a source of happiness for most families. For this reason all countries attach importance to the issue of wages. This essay is about wages by Transnationals operating in Zambia to their employees. It explores the level of wages in Zambia generally and particularly employs of Transnationals operating in Zambia. The essay consists of four chapters. The first chapter provides for the Legal Framework under which Transnationals operate. This highlights the necessary provisions from the Investment Act Cap 369 of the Laws of Zambia. Chapter two discusses the method of wage determination that should be utilized. It also shows the poor wage trend in Zambia with Shoprite as the case study. Chapter three on the other hand considers wages from the human rights perspective.It is the contention of this essay that the government of Zambia has not done enough in ensuring that workers in different industries are adequately wages. It is further the contention of this essay that the Zambian government itself does not pay its employees adequate salaries, which makes it difficult for government to promote a good wage system. Adequate wages by government would entitle it to claim the moral high ground from which to lecture the need to pay adequate wages. | en_US |
