Be Careful of fake job adverts warns KZN Health Department

The KwaZulu-Natal Department of Health wishes to warn the public that the attached poster – which has been circulated widely on social media – is fake, and has Not been issued by the Department.

It is but one of many fabricated adverts that seek to disseminate information that is untruthful and misleading about the recruitment process for jobs pertaining to the Dr Pixley Ka Isaka Seme Memorial Hospital, which is under construction, and others.

The Department wishes to reiterate that it has NOT yet issued any kind of invitation for people to submit their CVs online for consideration for employment. This is just a scam that is driven by faceless and unscrupulous people who stole the Departmental insignia, including the logo and image of the Hon MEC, Dr Sibongiseni Dhlomo. The advert even has incomplete information, with no web address to submit applications to.

The official website of the Department has no such page, as – even when the recruitment does begin – it will not be accepting online applications for these posts.

There is currently a Public Service Announcement of the Department on Ukhozi FM and Lotus FM, which addresses the issue of when and how jobs will be advertised by the Department.

So, please beware, and not fall victim these hoax adverts. The posts for Dr Pixley kaIsaka Seme Memorial Hospital will be advertised soon, on reputable newpapers and official goverment online platforms.

Together let’s fight corruption.
