1. About SA Gov Jobs
SA Gov Jobs is an independent public-sector job information website. We publish and organise government vacancy information, DPSA circular information, provincial vacancy information, department pages, career guides and related resources for job seekers.
SA Gov Jobs is not an official government website and is not operated by DPSA, gov.za, any national department, provincial administration, municipality or public entity.
2. Use of the website
You may use this website for lawful personal, informational and job-search purposes. You may not use the website in a way that is unlawful, misleading, abusive, harmful, fraudulent, defamatory, invasive of privacy, or that interferes with the operation or security of the website.
You may not attempt to gain unauthorised access to the website, its systems, user data, server infrastructure or connected services.
3. Vacancy information
Vacancy information on SA Gov Jobs may be imported, extracted, summarised, reformatted or republished from public sources such as DPSA circulars, provincial circulars, department notices, official PDFs and official recruitment portals.
We aim to keep information accurate and useful, but we do not guarantee that every vacancy is complete, current, error-free or still available. The official circular, department notice, public-sector recruitment portal or original source document is the authoritative source.
4. Applications and official sources
SA Gov Jobs does not receive, process, shortlist or decide government job applications unless a page expressly states otherwise. You must follow the official application instructions provided by the relevant department or public body.
You are responsible for checking the closing date, reference number, requirements, application form, supporting documents and method of submission before applying.
5. No employment guarantee
SA Gov Jobs does not guarantee interviews, appointments, employment, internships, learnerships, bursaries or any other outcome. Any recruitment decision is made by the relevant employer, department, public entity or recruitment authority.
6. No application fees charged by SA Gov Jobs
SA Gov Jobs does not charge users to apply for government vacancies listed on the website. If someone claims to represent SA Gov Jobs and asks you to pay for a government job application, priority placement, interview, appointment or application form, please treat it as suspicious and contact us.
7. User submissions and contact forms
If you submit information through a contact form, email, newsletter form or other website feature, you agree that the information you provide is accurate and that you have the right to provide it. You must not submit unlawful, harmful, misleading, confidential or third-party personal information without authority.
We may use submitted information to respond to your enquiry, provide requested services, operate the website, prevent abuse and comply with legal obligations. Our use of personal information is explained further in our Privacy Policy.

You may not copy, reproduce, republish, sell or commercially exploit our original content without permission, except where allowed by law.
Vacancy information sourced from public circulars and public-sector notices remains subject to the rights, terms and public-use rules of the original source.
9. Third-party links, tools and advertisements
The website may include links to third-party websites, official government websites, PDFs, application portals, social platforms, analytics tools, embedded content, advertisements and sponsored links.
