Advisory Committees

MWPF REGIONAL ADVISORY COMMITTEES

The Regional Advisory Committees, RACs, are support structures to the board. The Mineworkers Provident Fund has a committee in each region where there are members.

The Regional Advisory Committees are complementary bodies to the Board of Trustees. These structures are made up of member representatives and company representatives from all the participating employers..

The most important task of these structures is to keep the members informed on all the new developments within the Fund. These structures are an important communication tool for the Fund. These meetings are held bi-annually.

Who can Join the Fund?

The Fund is open for membership to all workers in the Mining industry whose employers are participating employers in the Mineworkers Provident Fund, workers of other members of the Chamber of Mines in South Africa and workers of other employers whose participation in the Fund has been approved by the Trustees, may also join. Joining members must be under the age of 60 for underground employees and 63 for other employees.
