The initiative is aimed at alleviating the distress many reclaimers face during the national lockdown, as they have not been allowed to operate.

The department of environment, forestry and fisheries in partnership with the packaging industry have secured a plan to assist waste pickers who have lost their livelihoods during the national lockdown period.

It is estimated that during the course of this week 3,925 reclaimers will receive vouchers they can reclaim at specified retailers. A total of 1,000 vouchers had been paid to individual reclaimers’ cell phones across the country by close of business on Thursday. The organisations representing recyclers have been working with their members to develop a comprehensive list of beneficiaries to assist the relief effort.
