This year we are asking our officials to give priority to Social Assistance Recipients. We want to ensure that these clients receive program interventions that are geared towards opportunities for lasting employment. Wherever appropriate, our aim is to encourage these individuals to be fully aware of their options under benefits like Skills Development, Self-Employment and Targeted Wage Subsidies. In brief, our message is that our support is there to help them reach their job preparedness objectives. We challenge you all to focus on those interventions that best support this group’s long-term attachment to the labour force.
