@DHAGrad @MSphephilem @HomeAffairsSA We were also told that, imagine an experience for a whole year that you can never apply to.

@MSphephilem @HomeAffairsSA Let’s not even go there, We practically helped open the Menlyn branch. When there were posts the manager said we can’t be shortlisted because our qualifications are in IT not Public Admin. 😅 @HomeAffairsSA “home of corruption”

Home Affairs clarifies contract status of Digitisation Project graduates 26 March 2026

@IAm_SJV @HomeAffairsSA But now its not being temporary, it was extended by 5 months, now 4 months but we will have to work under a private company while DHA is looking for another company that will take over after that 4 months.

@HomeAffairsSA Simple thing here, The project was always meant to be temporary. By law, the department cannot just make these graduates permanent employees; they must apply for full-time jobs like everyone else through a fair, competitive process.

@Za_letsi @Siba58407174638 @HomeAffairsSA Mehlolo some were first cohort mos and we signed contract ya DHA rele benoni😂😂

@berlinamonase7 @Siba58407174638 @HomeAffairsSA They said they the dismissed people where employed by the service provider😂😂😂😂

@Siba58407174638 @HomeAffairsSA And also why don't they mention that they terminated other graduates more than hundred last year, coz they only mention those that resigned

@HomeAffairsSA The DDG told us at the Silverton Hub that DHA will give this tender to another company post July and that the new company will decide whether they want to continue with us or employ new people. DHA is avoiding labour laws!!

How can Department of Home Affairs outsource such a big project? The Department of Home Affairs' digitisation project has been embroiled in controversy following mass protests by young graduates and concerns over the reappointment of a previously dismissed service provider, Phetogo Digital Transformation, despite poor performance issues. The graduates are demanding permanent employment within the department rather than being managed by private labour brokers. Workers are frustrated with their roles being reduced to month-to-month contracts under private management, despite handling sensitive national records for years on a low stipend of approximately R5,500. Protesters argue that handling sensitive civic records warrants direct government employment to ensure the security of South Africans' personal data. @GovernmentZA #NoOutSourcing

@Miz_Ruraltarain @HomeAffairsSA The digitization staff deserves job security . They deal with sensitive information on a daily basis and have been doing a great job. Even the powers at the top have acknowledged that. Now give them permanent employment. The job is not done yet. @CyrilRamaphosa @Leon_Schreib

BREAKING NEWS: Department of Home Affairs allegedly forcing digitisation stuff to be outsourced to a private company. The Department of Home Affairs, Minister Leon Schreiber and his team of directors want to allegedly outsource the current digitisation staff of between 1 200 and 1 500 to a private company, Phetogo. The employees have been under the DHA for 3 years, going on 4 years now. They are allegedly earning a salary of R5 000 without any UIF or any benefits. These are graduates who hold qualifications. Now the DHA wants to outsource them to a private company under the same conditions of exploitation. On the 24 March 2025, police were called in one of the hubs at Silverton, Pretoria because the employees refuse to work under such conditions. All the hubs were closed down and we were told to go home and wait for further communication. Allegedly they are threatening to fire the stuff and appoint new staff if they refuse to sign with Phetogo a private company. The stuff refuse to be exploited and outsourced.

@Down_low1738 @PSAFLIVE It never reached 10 000 graduates and some graduates were unfairly terminated last year October

@PSAFLIVE Wasn’t this project supposed to hire 10 000 graduates? If they are now +-1500, what happend to the rest? More importantly, what happened to the money?
