Thousands of people qualifying to receive UIF payments due to the disruption of work by the coronavirus may not get their money on time, if at all.

The Unemployment Insurance Fund said this was because “companies have either not applied on their behalf or have not corrected the information to enable the UIF to pay timeously”.

“When we receive applications from employers, we verify the information to ensure that the employees they are claiming for appear in our system. When we identify inconsistencies, we send the enquiry to the employer for verification,” said Maruping. Companies that are facing distress and contribute to the UIF were advised to apply for payouts throughCompanies not registered with the UIF by March 15 2020 may not apply as they would not qualify, neither would freelance and commission workers.
