1.2 Angola Regulatory Departments and Quality Control

ANGOLA institution that regulates the standardization and quality is under umbrella of the Ministry of Industry under the Angolan Institute of Standardization and Quality (IANORQ), Ministry of Industry.

Reinforced by the Angola Institute of Accreditation (IAAC) committed to create regulations and inspect laboratory activities related to standardisation and quality analysis which as the oversight of SADCAS

The Southern African Development Community Accreditation Services (SADCAS) a multi-economy accreditation body established in terms of Article 15 B of the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Annex to the SADC Protocol on Trade with the primary purpose of ensuring that conformity assessment service providers (calibration/testing/medical laboratories, certification and inspection bodies) operating in those SADC Member States which do not have national accreditation bodies are subject to an oversight by an authoritative body. Within the SADC region only South Africa and Mauritius have national accreditation bodies.

NB:

Bromangol is the only quality inspection private company authorised by Angolan government (Servicos Nacionais de Alfandega) to perform quality inspections (microbiology + chemistry & physics analysis) for all food consignments on arrival.
Apparently no other laboratory performing such analysis (or/and standards of quality under ISO/IEC17025 certification) are operational in the country. HOWEVER AS OF 10/10/2017 BY DRECREE PRESEDENTIAL WAS ANNOUNCED THE END OF BROMANGOL MONOPOLY THEREFORE, MARKET OPEN FOR OUTSIDE PRIVATE INVESTMENTS IN THIS AREA.
Main Superintendent companies in Angola as follows:
- Bureau Veritas
- SGS
- Cotecna
- Intertek

In line with the above the superintendent companies who can perform quality surveys are until now only supported by outside country labs however with end of the monopoly of Bromangol is likely that as details of the new Angola Government policies are known, is expected more private companies/state institutions or companies investing in the sector.

Seasonal Effects on Logistics Capacities

Seasonal Effects on Transport
Transport Type	Time Frame	Comments / Details
Primary Road Transport	September/April rain season	According to the World Bank’s AICD, transportation causes a significant bottleneck in Angola’s economy. World Bank and AICD estimates of paved roads ranging between 10.4% and 17%. During the raining season still, the main transport routes are traversable. Specifically, the main links in the western half of the country appear to be in reasonable condition, while roads on the eastern side are sparser and more dilapidated with prolonged inaccessibility. Landmines - Remain a problem outside major urban areas. NB: Security related to delinquency should be a concern for cargo and passengers during transit with emphasis to Luanda region and Cabinda Province.
Secondary Road Transport	September/April- Rains & Import season	Roads and bridges are often washed away by sudden floods during the rainy season. Special attention to landmines that may become displaced and end up outside recognized minefields. NB: Albeit the general thrust in security, safe travel remains an issue due to organized crime in Luanda region and army groups in Cabinda Province.
Rail Transport	N/A	The rail system in Angola consists of three main railways that were built eastwards from the coast during colonial times, linking Angola’s key Atlantic ports to the interior. Many of these lines were destroyed during the 27-year-long civil war. However, railway lines have just recently been rehabilitated and rebuilt or are still under construction therefore, no relevant seasonal impact yet to be reported for this sector.
Air Transport	September/April-Rains & Import season	Safety is the major concern for Angolan carriers which may be exacerbated by abnormal weather conditions. Upsurge of freight during the festivity season (December/January) increasing delivery time and logistics bottlenecks
Waterway Transport	September/April-Rains & Import season	Worsens performance of port operations and increases vessel berth delays which together with bureaucracy and the service costs said to be the basis for diversion of shipments to neighbouring ports (i.e. Walvis Bay) for later transshipment.

Most of the freight in Angola is transported by road on trucks, since; (1) inland water navigation or coastal shipping are not an option or not efficient/cost competitive vis-vis road transportation;

(2) few railway lines have just started operations and or still under development; (4) air traffic is not the most cost efficient for larger volumes of cargo.

As per the above the relevance of the seasonal effects to the road transport logistics network in special when connected to the Luanda Port Corridor, point of entry of 80% of the country imports is of pivotal importance.

Main seasonal effects are: (5) Flash floods during the long raining season period which can destroy bridges and move landmines from identified sites; (6) Import season which coincides with the raining season may create berth delays therefore increasing trucks stand-by and increase truck travel time.

Seasonal Effects on Storage and Handling
Activity Type	Time Frame	Comments / Details
Storage	From September to April	Majority of storage available is not suitable for storage of food commodities since do not have temperature control and its designs (i.e. few warehouses built with covered reception area) are not the most adequate to protect from heat and humidity. This is worsened during the raining season, period of major movement of agricultural inputs; food imports; and/or incremental of buffer stocks activities. Readiness with storage equipment such as pallets and tarpaulins are important to assist on safety of cargo stored.
Handling	N/A	Manual labour is the most used for manipulation of cargoes stores. The massive unemployment rate provides surplus of manual labour available anywhere in Angola however, workers are unskilled therefore, rough handling of cargo and consequent damages should be expected. As per the above is essential warehouses to be prepared with adequate storage equipment for re-bagging operations.
Other

Quality monitoring of commodities specially during raining season is a must in an environment of poor quality of food storage which increases the risk of infestation by insects & rodents. Extra attention when prolonged storage unavoidable when fortified commodities are involved since vitamins/minerals are easily lost under heat.

Pre-planning in providing EDP/FDP locations with sufficient & adequate reconditioning materials including i.e. fumigants and rodents/insect traps is pivotal.

NB: Other point for the attention is existence of certified fumigation companies therefore, training of WFP staff to adequately monitor basic functions of fumigation services must be considered.

1.3 Angola Customs Information

Duties and Tax Exemption

4.1 Angola Government Contact List

A) Angolan import duty rates were adjusted in November 2019 as per Presidential Decree 10/19 dated 29 November 2019 (https://www.ucm.minfin.gov.ao/cs/groups/public/documents/document/aw4x/mjm3/~edisp/minfin1237904.pdf) and the last rectification N. 31/20 updated in August 2020, the main change was the implementation of VAT, IEC (special consumption tax over Applicable to products harmful to health and the environment, in addition to high social costs such as cigarettes and alcoholic beverages, luxury vehicles…) and the 20% duties charged over the FOB value for the exportation out of Angola except when exempted by respective sector/Ministries. The studies and execution of those reforms are under responsibility of the Administracao Geral Tributaria (AGT) which also supervises the Directorate for Customs Services responsible to ensure that Customs National Laws follows the agreed International and Regional recommendations subscribed by the Government Authorities.
B) If cargo imported by sea and if the FOB value is over USD 5000 an import license is required prior to dispatch the cargo; once the import license is obtained through a Customs broker, it must be submitted by the shipper or it forwarding agent at the origin to the CNC now called ARCCLA (Agencia Reguladora de Certifição de Carga e Logistica de Angola) in order to obtain the freight certificate and enable the customs clearance formalities upon cargo arrival in the country.

This text is extracted from the current letter covering WFP assistance for RDC refugees in Angola.

2) After WFP acceptance, commodity shipment information is forwarded to the local WFP office which submits a request for issuance of the Import Permit to the concerned Ministry see below (NB: At this stage is necessary to have good data accuracy e.g. Commodity, Quantity, Origin, Entry Point and Mode of Transportation);

· Agriculture commodities such as Cereals (incl. flours), Pulses addressed to the Ministry of Agriculture/Direccao National de Agricultura & Pecuaria

· Industrial processed commodities as Oils, sugar, salt addressed to Ministry of Commerce

Salt addressed to Ministry of Fisheries/Direccao Nacional Infrastruturas da Industria Pesqueira.
3) When the Import Permit is issued WFP must forward to the local office; sailing advice if no B/L available. pro-forma Invoice; copies of certificates ORIGIN – stating best use date and/or expiry date, Phytosanitary (only relevant for agriculture products), Analysis, Health & Packing,by road a truck list covering dispatch quantity mentioned in the Import Permit - with truck registration details of drivers & cargo per truck (NB: if foreigner driver WFP (through the UN Resident Coordinator) needs to write an invitation letter for visa process); by sea general specification of shipping details to be included

4) WFP letter of donation is then stamped/signed by the Ministerio da Assistencia e Reinsercao Social and Departamento de Desenvolvimento Comunitário da Direcção Nacional da Acção Social do Ministério da Acção Social, Família e Promoção da Mulher (Angola regulator of all NGOs activities),
5) WFP cover letter attaching all process is then addressed to AGT (Admnistracao Geral Tributaria) requesting their approval for Exemption of Customs tax/duties. After AGT approval ends the procedures for request of tax exemption and starts the Customs Clearance process.

CUSTOMS CLEARANCE STEPS
6) Simultaneously to their approval of tax exemption AGT issues per truck the Import Register which should then be handed over by the WFP Customs Broker to the Customs representation at the border.
7) If cargo imported by sea WFP Customs Broker prepares and submits the DU-Documento Unico, to the CNC now called ARCCLA (Agencia Reguladora de Certifição de Carga e Logistica de Angola). The ARCCLA is responsible to issue the “freight certificate document and forward to their agent in the port of loading for verification (pre-inspection of cargo no longer mandatory). Thereafter the B/L number is inserted on the ARCCLA document signalling all ready for import shipment to proceed.
8) From the loading point WFP representative should sent a copy of the CNCA document plus 2 Original BLs and Original Certificates to the office in Angola which then are handed over to the Customs broker to; 1 set of Originals will complete the dispatch at Customs representation based in the port area and allow cargo release with a document named“Nota de Desenfaldegamento”. 2nd set of original documents are mandatory to be handed over to shipping line to obtain the Release Order.

Import of project vehicles may follow a different approach.

1) The local WFP Office receives the pro-forma/ original Commercial invoice, certificates of Origin, Packing List, copy of B/L and all documentation is handed over to WFP contracted Customs Broker.
2) WFP Customs Broker prepares and submits the DU-Documento Unico, to the ARCCLA (Agencia Reguladora de Certifição de Carga e Logistica de Angola). The ARCCLA releases the “freight certificate document “containing shipment data details to their agent based at the port of loading for verification (and pre-inspection currently not obligatory). ARCCLA document have registration of the number of the B/L.
3) At the point of loading ARCCLA agent provides a copy of the ARCCLA document which certifies their verification to WFP agent which will forward a copy to WFP Office in Angola.
4) WFP local office gathers all documentation (same as referring at point 1) plus the CNCA document received from the point of loading, and attaches to a cover letter requesting exemption of customs taxes/ duties addressee to Direccao Geral do Protocolo do Estado in the Ministry of foreigner Affairs. A similar letter and attachments are also sent to AGT after signature & stamp both by Ministerio da Assistencia e Reinsercao Social & Departamento de Desenvolvimento Comunitário da Direcção Nacional da Acção Social do Ministério da Acção Social, Família e Promoção da Mulher - Angola regulator for NGOs activities.
5) The Ministry of Foreigner Affairs expedites a letter to AGT supporting WFP request for exemption of customs taxation/duties.
6) AGT is expected to exempt from payment of taxes except 2% “emolumentos gerais” against the CIF value (invoice + insurance + freight value).

2 Angola Logistics Infrastructure

Angola - The World Factbook (cia.gov)

Angola has faced a destructive civil war that left many scars still to heal. Its transportation infrastructure has been severely damaged and still will take time to recover. The biggest share of the economy is on O&G business, with oil corresponding to almost 90% of exports (2019 data - https://oec.world/en/profile/country/ago).

There are plans to improve the infrastructure like the new airport (postponed to mid 2023 - https://angolaairport.net/airport/new-luanda-airport.html). There are plans for new investments in Angola, through different concessions. On 2019, it was issued the Investment Memorandum, stating plans of concessions, following the tender of one of the terminals at Port of Luanda (https://www.portoluanda.co.ao/documentos/3_MEMORANDO_INVESTIMENTO_EN.pdf)

Road network has around 75000 km, of which less than 20% is paved (https://documents1.worldbank.org/curated/en/544651589953904979/pdf/Angola-Road-Sector-Public-Expenditure-Review.pdf).

Angola has the third largest economy and second largest oil producer of Sub-Saharan Africa. As part of the OPEC, Angola oil production levels have to follow the organization’s.

The economy is strongly dependent on oil, which from one hand contributed to have the fastest growth pace in the first decade of the years 2000, and from the other severe impacted due to oil prices drop.

2.1 Angola Port Assessment

Angola has four important deep-water ports that are open to international shipping. These ports are located in Luanda, Cabinda, Lobito and Namibe.

(source: Angola Country Profile – Cross Border Road Transport Agency)

The present government has plans to establish concessions for port operations in the following years, as it has done for Luanda Port (since March 2021 the multipurpose terminal is operated by Dubai Ports)

https://www.portoluanda.co.ao/historial.php

In addition to these ports, there is the plan to build a new port 30 km away from Luanda, in Barra do Dande.

The port of Luanda, located on the bay of the city of Luanda, offers excellent conditions for navigation and for operating sea transport vessels. Its location in the middle of the west coast of the African continent positions this port as an ideal stop for ships on-route to the western parts of the continent.

Luanda port is managed by Empresa Portuaria de Luanda (EPL), a public company that grants concessions to parties to operate cargo and passenger terminals. Currently, Luanda port is the largest seaport in Angola, responsible for around 80% of the turnover of cargo transported by sea in the Angolan territory. (Investment Memorandum. December 2019). This port is strategically located adjacent to the Luanda Railway (CFL) and is currently the only seaport that has a railway connection with a border country to Angola, namely the DRC. The following specialised terminals are found at Luanda port:

Multi-terminals (break-bulk terminal);
Unicargas (multipurpose terminal);
Sogester (container terminal);
Sonils (oil & gas terminal); and
Soportos (multipurpose terminal).

2.1.2 Port of Lobito

2.1.2 Angola Port of Lobito

Port Overview

Lobito port, the second largest seaport in Angola, is strategically interconnected to the Benguela railway network (CFB) to facilitate the transportation of minerals from neighboring countries (e.g. DRC and Zambia). This port is classified as a deep-water seaport with five different types of terminals, namely:

General cargo terminal;
Refrigerated container terminal;
Containers in dry port terminal;
Mining terminal; and
Support Terminal.

The mining terminal has a railway connection to the Benguela railway, linking Lobito to the mining regions of the DRC and Zambia. Lobito port benefitted from Chinese-funded construction, renovation, and installation of heavy equipment at the port. The inaugural load, using the Benguela railway network took place in March 2018 when 1 000 tons of manganese was transported from the Katanga province in DRC to the Lobito Port in Angola. (https://www.privacyshield.gov/article?id=Angola-Marine-Technology). Plans have been developed to extend the existing railway network to other neighbouring countries.

2.2 Angola Aviation

Air transport acts as an important enabler to economic growth and development. Airports act as gateways to national, regional and global travel and therefore facilitates integration into the global economy. At the same token, airports provide vital connectivity on a national, regional, and international scale.

Acknowledging the importance of the air transport industry in stimulating economic growth and development, the aviation sector remains one of the most funded areas by the Angolan government. The aviation network is well established, as it was the major means of transportation during the country’s turbulent history. For this reason, the aviation sector suffered the least destruction of all transport modes.

The Angolan air transport market is monopolistic in nature and faces limited competition. The national carrier, TAAG has a monopoly on most of the domestic network and faces only some degree of competition on other (regional) routes. The status quo is about the change. President Joao Lourenco has made privatisation a mainstay of his policy agenda since taking over from Jose Eduardo dos Santos in 2017.

The new government adopted a holistic approach to transport infrastructure development and to date several air transport projects/programmes have been approved, many of which focus on modernising and enhancing airport networks and privitising the national carrier (TAAG) and the existing international airport. Progress include reincorporating the flag-carrier as a public limited company and a pledge made by government to partially privatise TAAG, with an initial sale of 10 percent of the airline company.

The privatisation of the international airport, Quatro de Fevereiro, is already taking shape. The privatisation model for the sale of a majority stake in the airport concessionaire is included in the Global Strategy for the Airport System (EGSA) and expressed in the Presidential Decree no. 206/20 of 3 August 2020. The Airport Management Company (SGA) will oversee the privatisation processes. In line with government’s privatisation initiatives, the construction of a new international airport has been on-going for several years and in 2019, this mega-project was 60% complete

(Source: Angola Country Profile Report March 2021 – CBRTA – South Africa)

Two other points to remark are the recent splitting of ENANA-EP in ENNA-EP (Empresa Nacional de Navegação Aérea) and SGA (Sociedade Gestora de Aeroportos) and the recently (2021) implementation of changing the INAVIC (Instituto Nacional de Aviação Civil) into ANAC (Agência Nacional de Aviação Civil), in order to reduce state intervention and following ICAO requirements.

2.3 Angola Road Network

2.3 ANGOLA Road Network

Angola has a large road network, especially around Luanda and in the coast.

Nearly half of the total road network is unclassified roads and there is no data on their characteristics and condition. The total size of the Angola road network is around 76,000 km. The classified network is around 43,655 km in length or 58% of the total road network. This classified road network includes around 26,000 km of fundamental roads which connect the capital to the 18 provinces and the main cities to each other and to around 17,500 km of complementary roads. The fundamental road network is under the responsibility of INAE, of which around 13,600km, or 52% are paved roads. The remaining classified road network (17,500 km) are complementary roads and are also under the responsibility of INAE of which only 210 km are paved. Most of the classified roads are 6 meters wide but there are also a few road sections which are 4.5 meters wide. The remaining road network consists of around 32,345 km of unclassified local roads which provide connectivity within the 164 municipalities areas (Figure 4) and are under the responsibility of the provinces. Data on the characteristics and on the conditions of this unclassified road network is not available. (extract from: ANGOLA ROAD SECTOR PUBLIC EXPENDITURE REVIEW Mustapha Benmaamar, Fatima Arroyo Arroyo and Nelson Tisso Eduardo - June 2020, reached at https://openknowledge.worldbank.org/bitstream/handle/10986/33804/Angola-Road-Sector-Public-Expenditure-Review.pdf?sequence=1&isAllowed=y )

Road Security

There is a common agreement amongst transporters interviewed that Angola has not yet achieved sufficient road security, below some factors:

Conditions of the road range between fair and bad. Mainly common in the west, roads link towns along the coast, but the further east to the inland provinces the worse road deterioration gets.
Bridges and weighbridges are a pivotal compliment for the road system in Angola however, the need of replacement of old structures or its rehabilitation has been slow and/or not up to speed as per the needs of the transport industry.
Bridges, weighbridges and roads are not protected by regular inspection and rehabilitation, and above all the application of regulations related to e.g. axle load limits, therefore, being common to notice vehicles overloaded. Speaking with transporters while all aware of damages caused by overloading of trucks none knew the contents of the law and/or there is acknowledgement that non-compliance is general.
Almost or non-existence of active road weighbridges nationwide has been acknowledged by the authorities however, no explanation available regarding reasons for the programme to set up 20 scales at strategic road links did not move forward. It is also worth to mention the public concern that perhaps quality of construction was not ascertained through rigorous and/or qualified inspection.
Exacerbating all the problems is the long raining season which not only increases deterioration or slows down repairs, but often cuts-off circulation of trucks for long periods becoming almost normal to use alternative roads with double time travel and cost.

2.4 Angola Milling Assessment

The Grandes Moagens de Angola (GMA) company has invested over 100 million US dollars on the implementation of a transformation plant to produce flour from wheat and animal feed from bran, according to César Rasgado, Business Administrator of the institution, quoted by the newspaper O País.

According to César Rasgado, the mill will be developed in Luanda and will have the capacity to produce 1,2 tons of cereal per day, for the production of wheat based flour and bran to be used for animal feed.

The administrator of GMA also revealed that the investment evaluated in 101 million US dollars has been approved by the Council of Ministers on June 26th, 2016 and forecasts a reduction of 60% in the importation of wheat flour for the domestic market.

The investment is to be used in the implementation of the production plant, the acquisition of equipment, machinery and the recruitment of staff. The expected launch for the beginning of production is the first quarter of 2017.

According to César Rasgado, the monthly production of over 36 thousand tons of flour is destined for the domestic market with the objective of reducing importation of these products from foreign markets.

“Once implemented, our production will be sufficient to cover our requirements of domestic demand, currently between 60 and 70 percent and make the most of the subproduct, bran, for the production of animal feed”, the administrator explained.

Regarding the bran, the representative for Grandes Moagens de Angola stated that half of the production is for export and aimed at the the acquisition of foreign currency due to the lower demand currently felt at a domestic level.

“Bran demand does not currently count much for local consumption, with 50 to 60 percent destined for export, in turn, balancing out the scale regarding payments”, César Rasgado added.

Data from the National Council for Shippers of Angola reveals that in 2015 Angola spent over 600 million USD importing wheat flour.”

2.5 Angola Railways

Rail transport in Angola is provided by three main rail lines, operated by three different administrators who all report to the Ministry of Transport. The Angola National Institute of Railroad (INFCA) establishes the regulations and standards for railroad operations and holds enforcement authority.

The Angolan rail network stretches over approximately 2 700 kilometres and connect the Atlantic coast to the interior of the country. The three separate rail lines are known as the:

Luanda Railways (located in the north);
Benguela Railways (located in the central part of Angola); and
Mocamedes Railways (located in the south).

The Luanda rail line runs 425 kilometre northeast from the port of Luanda to Malange, located in northern central Angola. The transportation of rail freight from the port of Luanda began in March 2013 with the hope that another transport alternative will entice companies to use railways as a means of transport, instead of trucks.

The Benguela rail line, also known as the “Lobito Corridor”, runs 1,344 kilometre from the Lobito port east to Luau on the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) border where a dry port and logistics centre are currently being planned. The Benguela rail renovation project, which was financed by the Chinese government, was completed in 2014.

Plans are underway to connect the Benguela line with railway networks in the DRC and Zambia to facilitate greater intra-African trade. It is expected that the Benguela rail line will become pivotal for the movement of cargo as a direct road link between Lobito and Luau does not exist. 59

The southern Moçâmedes railway line is 857 kilometre long and connects the port of Namibe to Memongue in the south, as well as the border of Namibia.

An ambitious plan has been developed to interconnect the Luanda, Benguela and Moçâmedes railways with railway lines in neighbouring countries to facilitate the seamless movement of rail traffic in the SADC. According to this proposal, the three separate railway companies will be merged into one company and rail transport management will be separated from rail infrastructure. The project will be financed through a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) in the form of a concession.

Fuel Pricing
Seasonal Variations
Fuel Transportation
Standards, Quality and Testing

The Ministry of Petrol (MINPET) is the government body which supports the President who is responsible for all legislation and political control related to the sector of Petrol, Gas and Biofuel.

The state company SONANGOL once with the monopoly for the commercialization of petrol derivatives in Angola Sonangol today with the liberalization there two more companies PUMANGOL and SONA GALP.

Except for GALP (through subsidiaries Petrogal & SONANGALP) both PUMANGOL (Private) and SONANGOL (state company) are nationwide competitors with large coverage of pumping stations around the country.

Majority of road distribution for fuel in country are done through private trucking companies (some of the most important in the sector are mentioned in our transport module).

See websites of the 3 companies with details regarding their fuel pumping stations coverage in Angola.

Information may also be found at: My travel cost Website which is updated monthly.

Fuel Pricing

Fuel Prices are subsidised and fixed nationwide by the government. Price below collected at the local pumping stations / exchange rate as of 17/11/2017 (1 USD =165,919)

Fuel Prices per Litre as of: DD MMM YY *(local currency and* *USD - $)*
Petrol	160 Kwanzas/per liter
Diesel	135 kwazas/per liter
Paraffin	132,950.86 kwanzas per 200 lt drum
Jet A-1	127.75 kwanzas; per liter

Seasonal Variations

Noticed all large transport companies with large storages for fuel to accommodate contingency stocks. As per transporters involved in fuel distribution confirmed that rations are rare but distribution problems may occur in unpredictable fashion e.g. price speculation, delays in transport payments, etc…are isolated cases but referred as common.

As per the above the arrangement to have before truck departure with sufficient provision of fuel for the round trip is a common practice to avoid possibilities of truck stand-by during voyage due to unavailability of fuel and/or driver to be engaged in price speculation or negotiation.

Constraints which may lead to temporary unavailability of fuel have not being reported as seasonal but unpredictable as well located to specific territory/location therefore, replies in the questionnaire below to be taken in this context.

3.2 Angola Manual Labour

The usage of unskilled manual labour is extensive in services of cargo handling (and the market have no problem regarding availability to high levels of unemployment) but expensive in comparison with other neighbour countries except for South Africa & Zimbabwe. The port industries (private sector) is investing in handling equipment aiming to reduce the cost of the unskilled labour. Note that some port terminals in coordination with private stevedoring companies jointly participate in organising (in house) regular job training and short time technical & awareness training aiming to improve quality of handling and safety of cargo and/or reduce risk of incidents. Majority of the stevedoring (unskilled labour) is contracted based on tonnage manipulated however, incentives are given in form of insurance against incidents in the operational area and currency to support transportation home/working place (trying to avoid not only the absenteeism and/or tentatively keeping the best labour as possible). The Unions are usually supportive of labour strikes specially in the absence of salary occurrence resulted as consequence of the financial crisis which affected all areas of business private or state owned.
