Abstract:

Zimbabwean firms particularly those in manufacturing have been greatly affected by the opening up of the economy which has seen the influx of cheaper foreign goods. This has created intense competition for the sector as customers opt for the more affordable foreign products. The result of this competition has been the decline of capacity utilisation by the local manufacturers which has also been accompanied by firms closing down, retrenching staff or at times refusing to award salaries that match the poverty datum line as they seek to survive. On the other hand, employees faced with possibilit

Comparative labour costs in the manufacturing industries have been analysed in four previous issues of this Review based on surveys of labour costs published by the Swedish Employers' Confederation. These contain time series of wages for time worked, social charges and total labour costs in manufacturing for most OECD countries and convert them into a common currency. Although no allowance is made for the different purchasing power of the wages paid (‘PPPs’) the comparison is useful since the products of the industries of various countries compete on international markets on the basis of curre

Abstract This paper challenges the long-standing view that aboriginal people were bystanders in the economic development and industrialization of British Columbia outside, and after, the fur trade. From the establishment of the Colony of Vancouver Island in 1849, through Confederation in 1871 and to the completion of the Canadian Pacific Railway, aboriginal people comprised the majority of the population in present-day British Columbia, and the majority of the workforce in agriculture, fishing, trapping and the burgeoning primary industries.

Informal entrepreneurship is a source of livelihood which provides employment and income to poor households in Chitungwiza Municipality in Zimbabwe. The dominant entrepreneurial activities are street vending, foreign currency exchange, urban farming, and home industries and cross border trading. The research approach that underpins this study is a triangulation of qualitative and quantitative. A semi-structured questionnaire and an interview guide were the instruments used in collecting data. The study sample was made up of 156 respondents that comprised informal entrepreneurs, social workers,

Abstract:

Additive Manufacturing (AM) or 3D printers (3DP) present a transformative opportunity for agro-based third-world countries like Zimbabwe. By enabling localized, on-demand production, AM/3D can revolutionize various sectors, including agriculture, food processing, and rural development. This study explores the current state of implementation of AM, challenges being faced by the industries in implementing AM technologies, and success stories in the nearby countries like South Africa and Botswana. Furthermore, the authors explored the opportunities where AM can be used. In the agricultural sector

Therefore, the development of a software for automated aerial photograph analysis is of greatest interest to the Swiss Confederation and its cantons as well as to forest owners, research institutes and certain industries (private engineering enterprises, software produc

Introduction Midwives attend intrapartum women of diverse ethnic backgrounds who each bring their cultural beliefs into the labor and delivery rooms. The International Confederation of Midwives has recommended providing culturally appropriate maternity care in its quest to increase skilled birth attendance and subsequently improve maternal and newborn health. Objective This study aimed to examine midwives’ cultural sensitivity during intrapartum care from women's perspectives, and how this relates to women's satisfaction with maternity care services.

Abstract:

Purpose Zimbabwean tourism, whose draw-card is wildlife, has been on the decline since land invasions that occurred in 2000. Due to the farm invasions, wildlife-based tourism is no longer a viable option. In cases where traditional industries are declining, cultural tourism has been found to be an effective alternative source of revenue. Cultural and heritage tourism represents a growing special interest market whose demand is very high; however, this sector is yet to be sufficiently explored in the empirical context of Northern Zimbabwe. The purpose of this paper is to explore the development

Abstract:

Peanuts and peanut butter play an important role nutritionally in improving the diets of individuals in many parts of Africa, especially in the fight against child malnutrition. However, in developing countries such as Zimbabwe, most of the raw peanuts and peanut butter produced in backyard industries are sold in informal markets and rarely undergo formal safety inspection for aflatoxin contamination. The objective of the study was to determine the prevalence of aflatoxins in raw peanuts and backyard peanut butter sold at Mbare informal market. Ten (10) raw peanut samples and twenty (20) peanu

In this article, the author discusses the lack of ergonomics input in developing countries generally and the lack of collaboration between Africa and other countries, particularly developed nations. She describes forestry ergonomics collaboration between South Africa and Chile and a consultancy project completed by a South African company for an industry in Zimbabwe and Zambia. Noteworthy was the focus on low-cost and no-cost interventions aimed at improving the well-being of workers, who are generally of poor health and who participate in labor-intensive industries in poorer countries.

An investigation was carried out on the effects of unsafe ergonomics practices by tractor operators in industrial companies in Zimbabwe. The survey was conducted in companies that manufacture tiles and bricks, collect waste litter using trailer-towed tractors, and construction companies. The investigation used a questionnaire to survey 15 operators in these different companies. Among other complications, Low Back Pain (LBP) affected all operators in the abovementioned industries. Other general complications noted were hand and leg pain, headaches, and chest pains. The Quality Function Deployme

Abstract:

Currently, Zimbabwe as a whole has been facing economic challenges in various ways, and this has greatly affected the functionality of quite a number of industries. Taking into consideration of the water treatment industries, mainly all city councils have been facing difficulties in meeting the potable water demand due to lack of funds to purchase the highly expensive chemicals required for raw water treatment. This research serves to provide an alternative to the coagulant used in most water treatment facilities in Zimbabwe, with reference to the City of Gweru. A moringa based coagulant funct
