Disclaimer

Disclaimer – GautengJobs.work

Last updated: September 2025

Welcome to GautengJobs.work. This comprehensive Disclaimer explains, in plain language, the scope and limitations of our responsibilities, the boundaries of your rights when using our website, and the conditions under which information and services are made available. We want every visitor to clearly understand that our site is an information hub designed to help job seekers discover opportunities and learn practical career skills. We do not offer recruitment services, we do not charge job seekers fees, and we do not guarantee outcomes. By accessing or using our website, you agree to the conditions set out in this Disclaimer. If you do not agree with any portion of it, please discontinue use of the site.

1. Informational Purpose Only

All content on GautengJobs.work—job listings, career guides, learnership and internship notices, application tips, salary insights, labour-market commentary, templates, and any other resource—is provided for general informational and educational purposes. We make reasonable efforts to post timely and accurate information; however, we cannot guarantee that any post will remain current, complete, or error free. Employers adjust closing dates, change minimum requirements, move application portals, or withdraw vacancies without public notice. Because of this natural fluidity in the job market, you must always verify details directly with the official employer or recruitment authority before taking any action.

  • Sources may include employer websites, government portals, licensed job boards, press offices, and public notices.
  • We summarise opportunities to make them easier to understand; summaries may omit certain employer-specific nuances.
  • Links can change or break, and third parties can edit or remove original pages without our knowledge.

Your responsibility: Treat everything you read as an initial guide, not a final decision-making document. Confirm application requirements (documents, forms, addresses), deadlines, stipend or salary figures, location details, and eligibility criteria on the official portal, advertisement, or communication from the employer.

2. No Recruitment, No Placement, No Guarantee

GautengJobs.work is not a recruitment agency and does not operate as an employer. We do not shortlist, interview, sign contracts, collect application fees, conduct background checks, or influence hiring decisions. Our role is to publish information that empowers job seekers to find, understand, and approach opportunities with confidence.

  • We do not request payment in exchange for jobs, interviews, preferential treatment, or placement services.
  • Submitting an application using information found on our site does not guarantee a response, interview, or job offer.
  • All decisions about candidate selection rest entirely with the employer or the recruitment service they appoint.

Any message, email, or social-media comment from a third party that appears to promise a job in exchange for money, gifts, vouchers, or personal information is highly likely to be fraudulent. Report such activity to the relevant authorities and contact the employer through official channels listed on their website.

3. Accuracy, Timeliness, and Evolving Information

We carefully research posts before publication and regularly review high-traffic pages for accuracy. Despite this, the labour market changes quickly. A vacancy that is valid in the morning may be closed by the afternoon; application links may switch from one tracking system to another; salary bands might be revised during budgeting or union negotiations; HR contact details may rotate as teams change. These variables exist outside our control.

  • Where a discrepancy is reported or detected, we may add a clarification note, update the link, or remove the page if necessary.
  • Our edits are based on good-faith assessments of reliable sources; however, we cannot guarantee that our corrections reflect all employer decisions in real time.
  • Archived or cached versions of our pages may persist elsewhere on the internet; we cannot remove these third-party copies.

When in doubt, prioritise the employer’s official notice over any summary you read on our site or any other aggregator. If you discover an error, kindly inform us via the contact details at the end of this document so we can review and take action where appropriate.

4. External Links and Third-Party Websites

Our posts often include links that lead to third-party websites such as employer portals, online application forms, training institutions, professional bodies, and government departments. These external sites are maintained by their respective owners. We provide the links solely for convenience and context. We neither manage the content on those sites nor control the technologies, cookies, or policies they use.

  • Clicking a link is at your own risk. Always verify that you are on the official domain before submitting personal information.
  • Read the third party’s Terms, Privacy Policy, and security notices. Their practices—not ours—govern how your information is handled once you leave GautengJobs.work.
  • We do not endorse a third party’s views, products, services, or claims merely by linking to them.

If you encounter a suspicious form, an unsecured page, or a fake portal impersonating an employer, stop your application immediately and alert the employer through their verified contact channels. You may also notify us so that we can update or remove the link from our site if appropriate.

5. Advertising, Sponsorship, and Google AdSense

GautengJobs.work uses advertising to fund free access to content. Ads may be served via Google AdSense and, from time to time, other reputable networks. These services may use cookies or device identifiers to deliver, measure, and improve ads. Depending on your region, you may be able to choose personalised or non-personalised ads through consent tools and browser settings.

  • We do not control which specific ad appears to you at any time; ad inventory is matched dynamically.
  • The presence of an advertisement does not equal endorsement by GautengJobs.work.
  • Any purchase, subscription, or engagement you make with an advertiser is strictly between you and the advertiser. Exercise due diligence.

We maintain editorial independence. Our decision to publish, feature, or sequence job posts is not for sale to advertisers. Where applicable, sponsored content will be labelled in a manner that clearly distinguishes it from our editorial content.

6. Financial and Fee Clarification

We do not ask for payment to access our posts or to view job listings. If anyone, on any platform, claims to represent GautengJobs.work and requests money in exchange for employment, expedited processing, or guaranteed interviews, that communication is fraudulent. We will never ask for bank cards, PINs, passwords, or “registration fees” from job seekers.

  • Legitimate employers rarely request payment during applications. Treat fee requests with extreme caution and verify using the employer’s official contact channels.
  • Beware of “training fees” or “medical checks” demanded upfront by unknown parties. Confirm legitimacy through verified email addresses and phone numbers posted on official websites.
  • Use secure payment methods and do not send funds to individuals you cannot validate through reputable sources.

If you suspect a scam, report it to the South African Police Service or relevant local authority, and contact the employer’s HR division using publicly listed details. Notify us so we can evaluate whether to issue a warning or remove references.

7. Professional, Legal, and Career Advice Limitations

Our posts sometimes include sample CVs, cover-letter pointers, interview tips, portfolio guidance, workplace etiquette, and simple explanations of HR practices. These are general guidelines designed for broad audiences. They are not a substitute for professional advice tailored to your situation, industry, or jurisdiction.

  • We do not provide legal, financial, medical, or psychological advice. For complex matters, consult a qualified professional.
  • Career outcomes differ widely based on individual profiles, labour demand, education, location, and market conditions.
  • Do not make high-stakes decisions (such as relocation or resignation) based solely on summaries found online. Seek multiple reputable sources.

Any action you take based on content from GautengJobs.work is done at your own judgment and risk. We disclaim responsibility for outcomes resulting from reliance on our general information, examples, or templates.

8. User Responsibility and Safe Conduct

Using the site responsibly protects you and the broader community. Always verify details with official sources, keep copies of application receipts or confirmations, and take note of reference numbers where provided. Use strong passwords for email addresses and portals associated with job applications. Avoid sharing excessive personal information in public comment sections, and refrain from posting private data belonging to others.

  • Confirm the legitimacy of recruiters before sending identity documents.
  • Never email unredacted copies of sensitive IDs unless explicitly required by a verified employer, and consider using watermarking to reduce misuse.
  • If a link looks suspicious, type the employer’s official domain into your browser to locate their careers page manually.

We may remove comments that expose private information, mislead applicants, or incite unlawful conduct. Repeated violations may lead to access restrictions to maintain site safety and integrity for everyone.

9. Intellectual Property Clarification

Unless otherwise stated, the articles, page layouts, images that we create, downloadable resources, and overall brand elements on GautengJobs.work are protected by copyright and related intellectual property laws. You may share links to our articles for personal use or community awareness, provided the links are accurate and non-misleading. Copying, scraping, cloning, or redistributing our content without permission is prohibited.

  • Short quotations for commentary or review are permitted with clear attribution and a link back to the original page.
  • Logos and trademarks of employers belong to their respective owners and are referenced on our site for identification and educational purposes only.
  • If you believe your IP has been used improperly, contact us with details so we can investigate and act where appropriate.

We respect the rights of others and expect users and third parties to do the same. Where a verified rights holder requests removal or modification, we will review the claim in good faith and respond within a reasonable timeframe.

10. Service Availability, Technical Issues, and Access

We strive for stable, secure, and fast access to the site, but there is no such thing as 100% uptime. Hosting providers experience outages, networks fluctuate, browsers behave differently, and content delivery networks sometimes throttle traffic during attacks or high-load events. We may also implement rate limits, firewall rules, or temporary blocks to protect the platform.

  • We may change, update, or remove content, features, or links without notice.
  • We do not warrant compatibility with every device, browser version, or plugin configuration.
  • We are not liable for delays, data loss, or errors caused by hardware failures, software bugs, or connectivity issues beyond our control.

Clearing your cache, updating your browser, disabling conflicting extensions, or trying a different device may resolve common issues. If you still experience problems, let us know using the contact channels below with details such as page URL, time of error, and a brief description of what happened.

11. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, GautengJobs.work, its owners, authors, contributors, and affiliates shall not be held liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, or punitive damages; loss of income, goodwill, data, or opportunities; or any other losses arising from or related to your use of the website, reliance on published information, engagement with advertisers, or interactions with third-party links and portals—even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

  • We are not responsible for hiring decisions made by employers.
  • We are not liable for costs you incur while preparing documents, travelling to interviews, or submitting applications.
  • We are not liable for adverse outcomes caused by inaccurate, outdated, or incomplete third-party information.

Certain jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties or the limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages; in such jurisdictions, our liability will be limited to the maximum extent allowed by law.

12. Indemnity

By using the site, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless GautengJobs.work and its affiliates from and against any claims, demands, losses, liabilities, penalties, damages, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from or related to: (a) your use or misuse of the website; (b) your reliance on information found here without verifying official details; (c) your interactions with advertisers, employers, or third-party websites; or (d) your violation of any law or rights of a third party.

13. Community Conduct and User-Generated Content

Comment sections, when enabled, are public spaces. Avoid posting personal ID numbers, home addresses, phone numbers, CVs, or confidential data. Do not impersonate employers or mislead others with false vacancies. We may moderate, edit, or remove comments that violate community standards, infringe rights, or expose users to risk. Persistent abuse may lead to permanent restrictions.

  • We may store limited technical data, such as IP addresses or timestamps, for security and anti-spam purposes.
  • Content you submit may be visible to the public; only share information you are comfortable making public.
  • We reserve a limited licence to display your comment as needed to operate the site.

If you see harmful or misleading content, please alert us so we can review it promptly. Community vigilance helps keep the platform safe and useful for everyone.

14. Educational Materials, Templates, and Examples

We provide example templates—CV formats, cover letters, email phrases, checklists, and interview question banks—to help you prepare. These examples are starting points only. Customise them using your authentic details and align them with employer instructions. Submitting a generic template without reviewing the job’s specific requirements can reduce your chances of success.

  • Do not include misleading achievements or qualifications in your documents.
  • Ensure that certificates, licences, and transcripts are valid, current, and relevant.
  • Where a qualification equivalence question arises, consult the official body (such as SAQA or the relevant professional council) for guidance.

You alone are responsible for the content of your application materials. Using our templates does not create a client–consultant relationship nor any professional service arrangement.

15. Security Awareness and Safe Submissions

Protect your digital identity when applying for jobs. Confirm HTTPS in the browser bar, avoid public Wi-Fi for sensitive submissions, and be wary of unsolicited attachments or links sent by unknown parties. Employers rarely request full banking details during initial applications; provide such details only at later stages when you have verified the employer’s identity and received legitimate documentation.

  • Use unique passwords for your email and job portals to prevent credential stuffing.
  • Enable two-factor authentication where possible.
  • Regularly review your email filters and spam folder to ensure legitimate replies are not missed.

We will never email you to request your password, one-time PINs, or secret recovery phrases. If you receive such a message, treat it as a phishing attempt and delete it.

16. Regional Differences and Legal Compliance

Employment regulations differ by country, province, and industry. Some employers have statutory hiring preferences, background checks, or health-and-safety prerequisites. Our summaries cannot reflect every legal nuance for every role. Your eligibility depends on local laws and employer policies. Always consult the official job advertisement and, if necessary, seek advice from qualified professionals or relevant authorities.

  • Where residency, citizenship, security clearance, or professional registration is required, it is your responsibility to ensure compliance.
  • When a role involves regulated activities (e.g., healthcare, security, transport), verify licence and clearance requirements directly with the employer or regulator.
  • If you plan to relocate for work, research immigration, tax, and housing implications before accepting any offer.

We do not facilitate visa applications, licence issuance, or professional accreditation. Any external service providers who claim to “process everything” on your behalf should be treated with caution and verified independently.

17. Updates to This Disclaimer

We may update, expand, or clarify this Disclaimer over time as our services evolve, as laws change, or as we introduce new features. The date at the top reflects the latest revision. Your continued use of the site after any update constitutes acceptance of the revised Disclaimer. For clarity on recent changes, you may contact us and request a summary of material updates.
