Terms & Conditions – GautengJobs.work

Last updated: September 2025

Welcome to GautengJobs.work. These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”, “Agreement”) govern your use of our website located at www.gautengjobs.work and all related pages, services, and content.

By accessing or using GautengJobs.work, you agree to comply with and be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use our website.

1. Introduction

GautengJobs.work is a career and job information platform. We publish job listings, internships, learnerships, and career-related content to help South Africans access employment opportunities.

We are not a recruitment agency and do not guarantee employment. Our role is limited to sharing information for educational and informational purposes. We cannot influence employer selection decisions, closing dates, or the availability of vacancies. While we strive to ensure accuracy, final verification of any opportunity rests with the employer or the official recruitment portal.

  • You are at least 18 years old, or you are accessing under the supervision of a parent or legal guardian.
  • You agree to use the website only for lawful purposes in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.
  • You will not misuse the website in any way that may damage, disable, or interfere with the proper working of our services.

5. Job Listings & Career Information

  • We aggregate and publish job-related information sourced from employers, government portals, and other reputable sources. We do not create jobs or conduct recruitment on behalf of any employer.
