Description of the internship

The Department of Home Affairs has more than 350 million inactive and active paper records, and a decision was made to prioritize the digitization of birth, marriage, and amendment records. The identified category of records dates back to 1895, requiring care and reliable systems that have tolerance for digitization purposes. Most of the inactive records are multiplied historical civil registration records in manuscript format and are in dire need of restoration, preservation, and reconstruction.

As such, the Department plans to convert all related records through digitizing paper records to electronic format, for easier handling and storage. The digitization project of all its civic records has been commissioned; the main purpose of the digitization of records will allow for the optimal performance of its main mandate and as such the records will be readily accessible for service delivery purposes.

The Department of Home Affairs seeks to contribute to the job creation goals and strategic priorities of the President’s Youth Employment Initiative (PYEI) by hiring unemployed youth on fixed-term contracts to assist with the digitization of their civic records.

The Department, in collaboration with the Department of Employment and Labor, is calling on 18-35 year olds and people with disabilities (PWD) to register with ESSA and apply for this enriching opportunity. Candidates who are already registered with ESSA do not have to visit Job Centers and can apply for these positions online. During the term of the contract, youth will receive ongoing learning and development interventions to enhance their skills for optimal performance and equip them for future job and/or business opportunities.
