The South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) in Mpumalanga is currently viewing the Fernie two Group 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, and also the Social Relief of Distress (SRD) COVID-19 grant enquiries.
In an announcement, the agency stated it can be alarmed with regards to the large range of people counting on social grants for survival.
“The purpose in the Integrated Registration Outreach Programme [ICROP] is to reach-out to the large range of clients/beneficiaries to more info access SASSA services.
“This is certainly because of the lack of infrastructure at Fernie and there's no fully functional office focused on service the area daily. The service place established for intervention encounters a higher inflow of opportunity beneficiaries, which makes it challenging for that Workplace to attend to all people who visit a service point.
“In this reach-out programme, SASSA will mobilise a lot more assets to help the servicing of all customers and boost use of Social Assistance products and services,” the agency said.
