Challenges
Inadequate funding for more continuous employment Lack of support from some local stakeholders eg. municipalities Coordination challenges with some municipalities Lack of capacity – 22% vacancy rate in branch Procurement challenges related to NRM transfer to DEA The current definition of EPWP might be excluding other people paid
out of the EPWP allocation Inadequate funding for the sector threatens the achievement of
targets

• Use of incentives, disincentives, advocacy and research for all Branch initiatives.• More work is required to understand the returns on investment of different interventions.• Planning and prioritization of work, and an appropriate balance between programmes.• Institutional arrangements and structures for efficient and effective management.• Norms, standards, systems and procedures to facilitate optimal delivery.• Data management and reporting.• Discipline, risk management and accountability.• Optimising the work opportunities, and meeting the targets by gender, age and disability.• Definitions for who qualifies as EPWP beneficiaries (Govt not getting credit it deserves).• Support from some local stakeholders (e.g. municipalities).• Procurement challenges relating to NRM transfer to DEA. Management capacity.• Funding for more continuous employment, as well as to achieve sector targets.• Appropriate legislation and its enforcement.• An understanding and appreciation of the need for the interventions by the public.• Championing of the work of the programmes by our leaders.• Co-operative governance. These programmes cut across the mandates of many bodies.
