The Department of Employment and Labour in the Free State province will host a series of service delivery campaigns in the Fezile Dabi and Lejweleputswa districts from 24 – 27 January 2022. The four-day campaign will take place in four towns namely: Deneysville, Vredefort, Vierfontein, and Bothaville.  

The campaign, spearheaded by one of the Department's entities, the Compensation Fund, aims to bring a basket of services to communities in order to expedite client inquiries, registrations, and claims. By focusing on remote communities, such initiatives bring a one-stop-shop to clients who would otherwise incur travel costs to access their benefits.

The following services will be provided: registration and processing of unemployment and insurance fund applications, payments, registration, claims, and inquiries for occupational injuries and diseases, inspections and enforcement services, and registration of job seekers on the South African Employment System.

The details of the campaign are as follows :

Members of the public that wish to be assisted on the above-mentioned services are encouraged to bring along the following documents:

• ID Documents/Valid Passport
• Proof of residence
