Enormous chunk of the Unemployment Insurance Fund's monies has gone missing

In essence, the fund is starting to run short of money, and still has about 70% of its investment with the PIC. I presume there has been a strict instruction from the department of employment & labour to ensure UIF funds are invested in listed investments. To do otherwise would be reckless.JOIN THE DISCUSSION: Send us an email with your comments to l
