Good afternoon our beautiful Merafong Community
🚨 JOB SCAM ALERT 🚨
Carletonville Hospital wishes to alert members of the public to a fraudulent recruitment scam currently circulating within our community.
An individual is falsely claiming that Carletonville Hospital has vacancies available in the Laundry Department. The same individual is also recruiting people under the false pretence that his company has secured a security services contract at Carletonville Hospital and is requesting payment from prospective applicants.
The scammer is reportedly using the following contact numbers:
📞 071 164 4233
📞 072 889 9565
⚠️ PLEASE BE ADVISED:
• Carletonville Hospital does NOT recruit staff via phone calls, WhatsApp messages, social media platforms, or external companies.
• The Hospital will NEVER request payment, deposits, administration fees, or any form of financial contribution in exchange for employment opportunities, interviews, assessments, or appointments.
• CVs are not accepted through unofficial WhatsApp numbers or personal email addresses.
All vacant posts are officially advertised through:
✔️ The DPSA Vacancy Circular
✔️ The Gauteng Professional Job Centre: https://jobs.gauteng.gov.za
✔️ Selected reputable newspapers
If you are asked to make any payment, submit documents through unofficial channels, or urgently apply via WhatsApp, treat it as a scam and report it immediately.
Members of the public are encouraged to remain vigilant and verify all employment opportunities through official government recruitment platforms.
Together, we can protect our communities from fraud and exploitation.
