Kagem reaches 2026/2027 collective agreement
The collective agreement, which has been approved by the Labour Commissioner in Lusaka, marks the fourth consecutive year that Kagem will be honouring such a commitment to its staff.
Kagem has successfully negotiated the 2026/2027 collective agreement for its unionised workers under which employees will receive a 10% salary increment for 2026 and a further 10% for 2027 across the board.
In addition, the negotiations between Kagem management and the Mine Workers Union of Zambia (MUZ) and the National Union of Miners & Allied Workers (NUMAW) saw the introduction of a 13th salary cheque for staff at 100% of monthly basic pay in December in lieu of the Christmas bonus, among other upward adjustments.
