The South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) in Mpumalanga is currently browsing the Fernie two Community Hall in Mpuluzi to render services to the community.
SASSA will likely be rendering services for instance new social grant applications, change of payment method, consumer treatment enquiries, as well as the Social Relief of Distress (SRD) COVID-19 grant enquiries.
In a press release, the agency mentioned it is actually alarmed with regard to the substantial number of people counting on social grants for survival.
“The aim on the Integrated Registration Outreach Programme [ICROP] is to reach-out to a substantial number of clients/beneficiaries to access SASSA services.
“This is often as a result of lack of infrastructure at Fernie and there's no totally functional office committed to service the area on a daily basis. The provider position created read more for intervention encounters a large inflow of possible beneficiaries, which makes it complicated to the office to attend to all people who visit a service point.
“In this reach-out programme, SASSA will mobilise additional methods to help the servicing of all clients and boost use of Social Assistance products and services,” the agency said.
