Employees can check payment status on UIF Covid-19 portal, but it has flaws

The UIF communicates with employers if there are any discrepancies in their UIF Covid-19 Ters applications.

A test done by staff at Arena Holdings came up with different responses for four employees when using the UIF website to query why payouts have not been received.Employees who have not received payouts from the Temporary Employer/Employee Relief Scheme , which is the Unemployment Insurance Fund Covid-19 fund, since the beginning of lockdown, have no way of finding out what could be outstanding or delaying their payouts.

Although the meaning of these responses is explained on the UIF website, employees have no way to get detailed reasons specific to their companies about why they have not been paid.UIF commissioner Makhosonke Buthelezi told TimesLIVE on Friday that the UIF communicates with the employers if there are inconsistencies with the application.
