Nxesi urges employers to pay staff UIF funds

Employment and Labour Minister Thulas Nxesi has urged employers to disburse Covid-19 Temporary Employer/Employee Relief Scheme (TERS) funds paid to them by the Unemployment Insurance Fund (UIF).

This comes after the Minister received numerous complaints from workers who alleged that their employers had not paid them the money, even though their employers had been paid the TERS benefit.
