A day in the life of a Volunteer Food Handler.

After two years of service, Volunteer Food Handlers face bureaucratic barriers to claiming their UIF benefits. It’s time to rethink how we value care work in public programmes.

Volunteer Food Handlers are being short-changed. Schools underreport their working hours, making it harder to access UIF.

Section 10 of the Constitution guarantees everyone’s inherent dignity and the right to have that dignity respected and protected. Volunteer Food Handlers campaigning for better access to UIF benefits want the government to uphold this principle.
