CSPRM urges GEPF to speed up pension payouts
Civil Servants Pension Redress Movement (CSPRM), which advocates for civil servants in South Africa, has called on Government Employee Pension Funds (GEPF) to expedite pension payouts for eligible former public servants.
This follows concerns raised by former public servants in the Northern Cape who insist that their benefits were not properly calculated between the period 1961 and 1998.
Chairperson of Civil Servants Redress Movement, Dennis Fourie, says past injustices must be rectified.
“Let us think of the lower-end earners under apartheid. Those are the people who need that money the most. That is why I am pleading with the president today. There are many people around us who are saying that if they had received that money, they would now be able to afford to pay for their grandchildren’s education,” says Fourie.
Understanding how “Spouse Pension” works helps you plan with confidence and protect your family’s future.
