The Minister for the Public Service and Ad-
ministration, Ms Ayanda Dlodlo calls upon
on all former Public Servants and their
beneficiaries to come forward to apply for
their unclaimed and unpaid pension ben-
efits currently lying with the Government
Pensions Administration Agency (GPAA).

pension fund on behalf of the Government
Employees Pensions Fund (GEPF), has
reported that by 31 May 2018, there were
17 271 cases of Unclaimed Benefits and
during the same period, there were 26 919
cases of Unpaid Benefits. The combined
total number of cases is 44 190.
In terms of section 3(5) of the Public
Service Act, 1994 minister Dlodlo tencour-
ages all relevant stakeholders including
the GEPF, GPAA, Premiers of all the
Provinces, Department of Home Affairs,
the South African Social Security Agency
(SASSA), traditional leaders and labour
unions, to alert former Public Servants
and their beneficiaries to apply for these
unclaimed pension benefits.
Minister Dlodlo also calls upon all
former Public Servants who have not
yet claimed their pension benefits, to
approach their closest regional Walk-In
Centres of the Government Employees
Pensions Fund in all nine provinces across
the country, to apply for their unclaimed-
benefits.
