LISTED hospitality entity, Rainbow Tourism Group (RTG) has set its sights on spurring the welfare of its employees after launching a housing scheme to cater for their needs.

Speaking on the latest development Monday, RTG CEO Tendai Madziwanyika said the concern places the welfare of its employees at the heart of its operations.

“I am pleased to advise that RTG has facilitated housing for close to 45 percent of our employees and by the end of 2025 that number will be closer to 60 percent. We aim that by end of 2027 we will be proving more than 75 percent of our employees with access to housing,” he said.

Madziwanyika expressed gratitude over the model, the group and the project financier which has enabled the workers to meet their different housing needs. He said some people are accessing housing units in their later years and they may choose to rather put a borehole and solar and thereby expand their rural home.

“Our aim is to truly enhance the quality of life of our employees. We also believe that by providing quality incomes our employees are able to better look after their families and relatives. We think there is a significant downstream impact of our approach to employee welfare. In addition, all employees entitled to company vehicles have to buy brand new cars thus ensuring high productivity and employees are not failing to come to work because their car has broken down,” he said.
