Employer Registration Clerk Jobs in South Africa

Department of Employment and Labour · Compensation Fund, Pretoria
R280 278 per annum

Professionals meeting in an office in South Africa

The Department of Employment and Labour is looking for Employer Registration Clerks at the Compensation Fund in Pretoria. This post appears in DPSA Circular 39 of 2026 as Post 39/15, with reference number HR 5/1/2/3/43, and there are seven posts available. The salary is R280 278 per annum. The closing date is 13 November 2026 at 16:00 for walk-in applications and 23:59 for online applications.

About the company and the work

The Compensation Fund sits within the Department of Employment and Labour and administers compensation for workers injured or made ill at work. Before any claim can be paid, the employer behind it must be correctly registered, with up-to-date details on the system. Employer Registration Clerks do that foundational work: they process registration forms, keep employer records accurate and make sure banking details and other master data are captured correctly, so that everything downstream runs smoothly.

The centre for these posts is the Compensation Fund in Pretoria. Enquiries about the posts are listed as Mr N Manugu on 067 419 2504.

Role details and duties

The duties stated in the advertisement include processing employer registration forms; updating master data; capturing employers’ banking details; conducting quality assurance; and providing an administration function within the sub-directorate. Accuracy matters here: a small error in a registration record or a bank detail can delay payments, so careful checking is part of the daily work.

Applications for these posts are sent by email to [email protected].

Requirements

Only the requirements stated in the advertisement are listed here:

  • A Grade 12 Certificate at NQF level 4
  • No experience is required
  • Knowledge including Compensation Fund policies, procedures and processes, relevant stakeholders and customers, Customer Services (Batho Pele), Financial Accounting, Billing administration, COIDA, the Public Service Act, Public Service Regulations, POPIA, the PFMA and National Treasury Regulations
  • Skills including computer literacy, communication (verbal and written), interpersonal skills, data and records management, telephone skills, etiquette, problem solving and decision making

Where to find and apply safely

These vacancies appear in the DPSA Circular 39 of 2026, in the Employment and Labour section. Apply on the new Z83 form, completed in full, with an updated comprehensive CV attached, and send it to [email protected], quoting reference number HR 5/1/2/3/43. Use the Apply button on this page, which points to the original DPSA source document, and follow the application instructions there. Never pay anyone who offers to secure a government post for you.

Practical tips

Complete the Z83 form in full, initial and sign it, and attach only an updated comprehensive CV at application stage, as the section instructions require. Because no experience is required, show clearly that you hold a Grade 12 certificate and highlight any computer literacy, data capturing or records work you have done, even from school, training or short jobs. Keep a copy of the email you send, and apply before the closing time, since the walk-in and online closing times differ.

How the process works

Correspondence will be limited to shortlisted candidates only. If you have not been contacted within eight weeks of the closing date, the application should be regarded as unsuccessful. Only shortlisted candidates submit certified copies of qualifications and other documents on or before the day of the interview. All shortlisted candidates, including senior management service level candidates, will undertake two pre-entry assessments: a practical exercise based on the technical and generic requirements of the post, and an integrity (ethical conduct) assessment, with selection panels scoring both technical exercises as an additional criterion. Successful candidates must enter into an employment contract and a performance agreement. The department reserves the right not to make any appointment.
