Mining Industry Pension Fund : The Mining Industry Pension Fund (MIPF) was set up in 1952, through an Industrial Agreement between the Chamber of Mines of Zimbabwe (COMZ) as one-party representing employers’ organisations, and the Associated Mine Workers Union of Zimbabwe (AMWUZ), Mine Officials and Salaried Staff Association, collectively referred to as the Trade Unions representing employees in the mining industry, being the other party. The Agreement incorporates Fund Rules which conform to the Pension and Provident Funds Act and Regulations, and serve as a rule book for the administration of the Fund. The Fund Rules were initially published as Statutory Instrument 771 of 1982, then later replaced by Statutory Instrument 14 of 2016 which is currently being reviewed to align with changes in the regulatory and operating environment. The main objective of the Fund is to provide for the payment of pension benefits to members in accordance with the Fund Rules. Every member who leaves employment shall be paid a pension benefit depending on the nature of exit from employment. Therefore, all members exiting employment should complete a Claim Form and submit it to the Fund to initiate the processing of their pension benefits.
