Show Notes
In South Africa, domestic workers gained compensation coverage under the Compensation for Occupational Injuries and Diseases Act in 2023. However, unions report challenges in enforcement, especially for isolated workers. They are advocating for more inspections and better enforcement. Employers are advised to update payrolls and include everyone in earnings reports. New rules emphasize rehabilitation, pushing companies to help with physical, mental, and job return programs. More Coida tweaks are set for April 1st to boost oversight and protections for vulnerable workers.
