TAILIEUCHUNG - Attitudes to work and social security in South Africa

This paper presents findings from a module in the HSRC’s 2006 South African Social Attitudes Survey that was designed by the Centre for the Analysis of South African Social Policy at the University of Oxford. Respondents were asked for their views on issues relating to the importance of work and the relationship between social grants and employment. The findings demonstrate a strong attachment to the labour market among the unemployed, support for more financial assistance for poor people including those who are unable to find work, and no evidence that social grants in South Africa foster a ’dependency culture’ | Attitudes to work and social security in South Africa Michael Noble Phakama Ntshongwana Rebecca Surender Free download from HSRC PRESS Free download from Commissioned by the Urban Rural and Economic Development Research Programme of the Human Sciences Research Council and prepared by the Centre for the Analysis of South African Social Policy University of Oxford.
