Private health-care has been made available to domestic workers nationwide at a cost of R170 p/m to the employer.
They will be able to provide their domestic workers with occupational and private primary health-care through a product called DomestiCare.
It is a new health-care scheme that was launched this month.
The health-care that is available to domestic workers, include GP consultations, medicines, X-rays and blood tests, but it excludes chronic medication and hospitalisation.
