, 3 DIFFERENT ANSWERS PROVIDED

Social security in South Africa consists of both contributory and non contributory
schemes. These mechanisms are designed to protect individuals against poverty
and social risks such as unemployment, disability, old age and injury. Understanding
how these schemes are financed is essential, particularly for professionals who
assist vulnerable clients in accessing benefits.

Social Assistance

Social assistance is a non contributory form of social security. It is funded entirely by
government through general tax revenue. Individuals who qualify for social
assistance are not required to have made prior financial contributions to the system.
Instead, eligibility is determined through a means test. The means test assesses the
income and assets of an applicant to determine whether the person falls below a
prescribed threshold and therefore qualifies for support.
