Non-compliance with the law by some Mpumalanga security companies has led to guards being exploited by their employers, the Department of Labour has found.
The department's acting spokesperson, Makhosonke Buthelezi, said inspectors found 14 employers had contravened the UIF Act by not declaring their employees to the fund as required. The department's deputy director for advocacy and stakeholder relations, Zoleka Ntshoza, said it had issued a number of compliance orders.
