Essential social security law, examines the law that seeks to
alleviate the economic and social consequences suffered by people
in the event of a complete or partial loss of income. It focuses on
those contingencies that have a direct impact on a person's earning
capacity, such as old age, injuries, unemployment, sickness and
pregnancy. It also deals with the death of a breadwinner, medical
incapacity, the inability to maintain children, personal and
community crises, hardship caused by the state and the lack of
opportunities for disadvantaged members of society. In the process
of examining these contingencies, the title deals with legislation
such as the Social Assistance Act, Pension Funds Act, Compensation
for occupational injuries and diseases Act, Unemployment Insurance
Act, Basic Conditions of Employment Act and Medical Schemes Act.
The k includes recent judgments dealing with various aspects of
social security and cross-references the important and
comprehensive report on social security compiled by the Taylor
Committee. It also contains an additional chapter on the concept of
informal social security in South Africa (such as stokvels). The
title also sheds light on a number of issues that have a bearing on
social security, for instance, financing and administration, unfair
discrimination in social security legislation and the social
security rights of migrant workers.
