The South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) in Mpumalanga is currently browsing the Fernie two Group Hall in Mpuluzi to render expert services into the community.
SASSA will be rendering providers including new social grant applications, change of payment method, customer treatment enquiries, together with the Social Relief of Distress (SRD) COVID-19 grant enquiries.
In an announcement, the agency reported it truly is alarmed in regards to the high amount of people relying on social grants for survival.
“The intention of the Integrated Registration Outreach Programme [ICROP] is to reach-out to your high variety of clients/beneficiaries to access SASSA services.
“This can be mainly because of the lack of infrastructure at Fernie and there is no entirely functional office dedicated to service the area each day. The assistance level developed for intervention encounters a significant influx of possible beneficiaries, that makes it complicated with the Workplace to attend to all people who check out a service point.
“In this reach-out programme, SASSA will mobilise a lot more resources to permit the servicing of all sassa status customers and raise access to Social Assistance expert services,” the agency said.
