FOREWORD BY THE MINISTER

It is my privilege and honour to present the 2014 – 2019 Strategic Plan of the Compensation Fund.

This Strategic Plan is intended to serve as a commitment of the Fund in the next five years to improve

its capacity to deliver services. It indicates the strategic objectives and outputs of the Compensation

Fund during the period and enables it to assess achievements and challenges against a set of key

milestones. This plan provides the basis for measuring performance in the delivery of services. This

Strategic Plan will assist in responding to the strategic priorities of government over the next five

years and will focus on the programmes to strengthen social security.

The Compensation Fund has made an unequivocal commitment to improve its operations by

continuing with efforts to fundamentally shift the organisation to become efficient and service oriented.

It is through this Strategic Plan that the Fund would effectively position itself to deliver on its mandate

of providing compensation for occupational injuries, diseases and rehabilitation of workers, and continuously add value to all its clients. In the next five years, the Fund will also be putting efforts to

increase access to its services to those who need them the most.

The achievement of all the outcomes is at the centre of the Fund’s contribution to build a better and

more caring nation. In this regard, we will continue to work hard and deliver in line with the broader

government priorities.

Over the next five years we will put in place mechanisms to ensure that the allocated funds are spent

as planned and in the best interest of our targeted clients.

As we celebrate the 21

st anniversary of our freedom this year and beyond, I commit the

Compensation Fund to continue working to improve the lives of our people and to commit to the

implementation of all the wonderful guides and targets that we have set for the caring people’s

administration. ………………………………………………………………… Honourable MN Oliphant, MP Executive Authority of the Department of Labour

COMMISSIONER’S OVERVIEW

Introduction It is with great pleasure to present the Compensation Fund’s Strategic Plan for the period 2014 -

2019. The Strategic Plan is an important tool used to determine the strategic goals and objectives of

an organisation in order to ensure improved services. It is also intended to be an instrument to guide

the manner in which operations are to be conducted and to allow stakeholders to fully understand the

commitments of the Fund for the next five years.

The Strategic Plan is in essence a tool to assist the Fund deliver on its mandate of providing

compensation for occupational injuries, diseases and rehabilitation of workers. This tool will also

assist in facilitating the process of holding the management of the Fund and staff accountable for the

delivery of the strategic goals in the next five years.

This Strategic Plan will also enable the Fund to contribute to the Government and Departmental

priorities whilst at the same time accelerating its efforts to improve the provision of social safety net. The Fund will also put measures to ensure that the allocated resources are utilised as planned. The Strategic Plan will focus more specifically on the following key performance areas:

Protecting vulnerable workers;

Strengthening social protection; and

Strengthening the institutional capacity of the Fund.

Our strategic priorities for the next five years are to:

Providing an efficient social safety net.

Providing professional, efficient and client orientated human resources.

Strengthening corporate governance.

Integration of the Fund with the comprehensive social security reforms.

Promote policy advocacy.

Improve financial viability.

Improve corporate support and services.

Enhance quality and access to COIDA services and information.

In an endeavour to ensure that the Fund is able to meet the above strategic objectives, a Turnaround

and Modernisation Strategy linked to this Strategic Plan has been developed and approved by the

management of the Compensation Fund. The interventions outlined in this Turnaround and

Modernisation Strategy will lead to more effective utilisation of available resources by the Fund,

improved business processes, policies and procedures, enhanced internal discipline throughout the

organization, improved public confidence and better service delivery.

The objectives of the Turnaround and Modernisation Strategy include:

Empowering employees as a key driver of performance;

Improving social security services;

Develop and implement innovation centred on citizens;

COMPENSATION FUND STRATEGIC PLAN 2014-2015

8

Fully embedding risk management and analytics into the organisation and processes;

Actively leveraging external experience and expertise; and

Positioning the organisation as an active contributor to society. The strategic priorities of the Fund are supported by Six Key Pillars of the Turnaround and

Modernisation Strategy which have been identified in order to unlock value and drive the

improvements required. These Six Key Pillars are: a) Transformation and Business Realignment – to drive efficiency and continuous improvement

across key business processes.

b) Revenue Management Transformation – to strengthen the revenue management capability,

develop strategy, drive compliance and improve revenue collection.

c) Claims Management Transformation - to strengthen the claims management capability,

develop strategy and improve claim turnaround times and service delivery.

d) Financial Management Transformation - to improve financial viability and maintain proper

systems on internal control and information management.

e) Human Resource Management – to provide professional, efficient and client oriented

workforce and ensure effective performance management.

f) ICT Transformation - to support the business by providing an enabling environment with

appropriate technology and infrastructure.

Amongst the initiatives to be implemented in the Turnaround and Modernisation Strategy in the next

two years, include, among others the following: -

Establishment of the Project Management Office;

Business process re-engineering;

Finalisation of the placement of staff and resettlement to provinces;

Piloting the RMA System in full with effect from 1 April 2014;

Investing in Socially Responsible Investments;

Establishing a payroll audit function;

Continuing to manage the comprehensive action plan to address the disclaimer opinion; and

Finalisation of the amendments to the COIDA legislation and consultation process with the

relevant stakeholders.

It is envisaged that the above will enhance the future vision of government in strengthening social

protection in order to provide an efficient safety net, especially to vulnerable groups, as well as providing

support to cushion individuals and families during difficult times caused by occupational injuries, diseases

and fatalities. To this end, the Fund will be exploring all avenues to improve accessibility through various

service delivery channels, which include e-mail, labour centres and web. This will be achieved through well-

defined and automated processes, highly motivated and trained people to optimally support the business

purpose.

9

It is my believe that this Strategic Plan as supported by the Turnaround and Modernisation Strategy

effectively positions the Fund to deliver on its stated vision of becoming a world class provider of

sustainable compensation for occupational injuries and diseases, rehabilitation and reintegration

services.

PART A: STRATEGIC OVERVIEW

1. Our Vision

1.1. To be a world class provider of sustainable compensation for occupational

injuries and diseases, rehabilitation and reintegration services.

2. Our Mission

To provide efficient, quality, client- centric and accessible COID services.

To sustain financial viability.

To ensure an organisation which takes care of the needs of its staff for

effective service delivery.

3. Our Values

3.1 We shall at all times adhere to and live the Batho Pele Principles

4. Legislative and other Policy Mandates

4.1 Constitutional and Legislative Mandates

COMPENSATION FUND STRATEGIC PLAN 2014-2015

11

The Compensation Fund is a public entity of the Department of Labour. The Fund administers the Compensation

for Occupational Injuries and Diseases Act no. 130/1993 as amended. The main objective of the Act is to provide

compensation for disablement caused by occupational injuries or diseases sustained or contracted by

employees, or for death resulting from such injuries or diseases, and provide for matters connected therewith.

The Fund generates its revenue from levies paid by employers, which consists mainly of annual assessments

paid by registered employers on a basis of a percentage or fixed rate of the annual earnings of their employees.

The COID Act, however, makes provision for a minimum assessment to ensure that the assessment is not less

than the administration costs incurred.

The operations of the Compensation Fund are also affected by the following legislation:

• Occupational Health and Safety Act, 1993

• NEDLAC Act, 1994

• Labour Relations Act, 1995, as amended

• Basic Conditions of Employment Act, 1997, as amended

• Employment Equity Act, 1998

• Skills Development Act 1998 as amended

• Unemployment Insurance Act, 2001 as amended

• Unemployment Insurance Contributions Act, 2002.

4.2 Relevant Court Rulings

Decided Cases Michael Donald Healy vs. Workmen’s Compensation Commissioner (delivered 15 September 2008:

Eastern Cape Division) This was a section 91 (5) appeal, the Appellant appealed against a decision of the first Respondent

(CC) that, as a result of an occupational injury to his knee, he was permanently disabled to an extent

of 18%.

The Court held that the guidelines that the Respondent and his Assessors applied did not adequately

measure the degree of disablement in the circumstances of this case and that an assessment

consistent with schedule 2 of the Compensation for Occupational Injuries and Diseases Act 130 of

1993 was 45% permanent disablement. The appeal was allowed with costs.

Karel Petrus Jooste Mouton vs. The State (delivered: 30/08/2002: Cape of good hope Provincial

Division)

This was an appeal against the decision of the Compensation Fund Tribunal. The Appellant lodged a

claim for chronic adjustment disorder and anxiety, the claim was refused on the basis that the

conditions did not arise out of, or in the course of his employment. The Tribunal confirmed this.

The Court held that the Tribunal overlooked the provisions of Section 65 completely and relied on the

Circular Instruction which is an internal guideline not law.

S Hammond vs. The Compensation Commissioner and the Director-General (Transvaal Provincial

Division: delivered 6/8/2004) This was an appeal against the decision of the Tribunal to reject the Appellant claim on the basis that

it was not work related. The Court found that the Appellant did not meet the requirements of section

65(b) and “I am equally satisfied that the Appellant has failed to prove his case on a balance of

probabilities”, or either he failed to prove his case. The appeal was dismissed with costs.

The effect of these three cases is that the Compensation Fund Circular Instructions are not

legislation, they are just guidelines for internal purposes, therefore not binding to the Courts.

The Fund must then regulate the Circular Instructions.

4.3 Planned Policy Initiatives

In the assessment of some South African policy documents from other government departments, which

provide a framework for rehabilitation of people with disabilities and an adoption of an integrated approach,

Integrated National Disability Strategy (INDS) which also stresses the importance of vocational integration,

it was apparent that there is little focus on linking rehabilitation to return to work policies and programmes.

and Diseased Workers

5. Situational Analysis

COMPENSATION FUND STRATEGIC PLAN 2014-2015

13

In November 2011, the National Planning Commission handed a National Development Plan’s (NDP)

vision 2030 document to the President of the Republic of South Africa. The NDP was welcomed by most

sectors of society as a framework which outlines the kind of a future country which should be realised. The

NDP comes at a time when South Africa is faced with many challenges such as low economic growth

trajectory, unstable labour market, high unemployment rate, increased reliance in social services which

places a strain on the national revenue fund and the changing world economic outlook. In this regard, the

NDP seeks to eliminate poverty and reduce inequality, broaden the capabilities of citizens to take the

opportunities available and change the life of millions of our people, especially the youth.

Furthermore, the NDP states that “At the core of this plan is a focus on capabilities; the capabilities of

people and of our country and of creating the opportunities for both. The capabilities that each person

needs to live life that they desire differs, but must include education and skills, decent accommodation,

nutrition, safe communities, social security, transport and job opportunities. The capabilities that the

country needs to enable citizens to thrive include a capable state, leadership from all sectors of society, a

pact for mutual sacrifice and trust.”

In order for this vision to be successfully implemented, the NDP has proposed that social security reforms

should be undertaken to ensure, among others, the following:

• “Public employment should be expanded to provide work for the unemployed, with a specific focus

on the youth and women. The retirement savings and risk benefit gap should be closed through

reforms, including mandatory contributions, with consideration given to government subsidising

these contributions for low income or periodic workers.

The integration of a number of databases in the social security environment with information from public

employment programmes will enable communities to conduct social audits of government services,

leading to better and more effective targeting of government's social and employment programmes.”

The Compensation Fund has since embarked on a process of developing an integrated and

comprehensive policy framework for rehabilitation, re-integration and return-to-work of injured and

diseased employees.

Aims of the Policy Framework:

• Promotion of return to work and/or functionality for workers who suffered occupational injuries/

diseases. • Re-integration of injured /diseased employees back into the workplace.

• Promotion of functionality through skills development, alternative employment and rehabilitation.

• Relation of a return-to work strategy to compensatory mechanisms.

Progress:

• The Policy Framework was approved by the Minister of Labour.

• The chapter on rehabilitation has been added in the COIDA amendments.

Way Forward:

• Benchmarking rehabilitation and reintegration locally and internationally, while awaiting COID

bill process.

In this regard, the Compensation Fund will continue to identify and participate in schemes or

programmes with other entities whose mandate is to create public employment and assess

investment opportunities which are driven by employment creation. In addition, the Compensation

Fund will continue to support and participate in the initiatives aimed at reforming the current social

security regime with a view to contributing to the 2030 vision of creating a comprehensive system of

social protection. This comprehensive social protection will include social security grants, mandatory

retirement savings, risk benefits such as unemployment, death and disability benefits and voluntary

retirement savings.

In addition, the Compensation Fund has developed a Turnaround and Modernisation Strategy and

which, among others, aims to improve its performance in delivering services to its clients. The

Turnaround and Modernisation Strategy which will be undertaken over a couple of years covering the

period of the strategic plan, aims to ensure that the Compensation Fund in the long term becomes an

efficient and effective machinery of the state in the provision of compensation for occupational injuries

and diseases, rehabilitation and re-integration services. In order to attain this goal, the Compensation

Fund will, among others, introduce new service delivery model through business process re-

engineering, Information and Communication Technology (ICT) system to assist in the processing of

claims and other related functions and conduct a comprehensive skills audit which will inform

strategies to build capability of staff in various areas.

5.1 Performance Delivery Environment 5.1.1 Service Delivery Environment

The Directorate: Compensation is divided into three sub-directorates namely: Claims Registration,

Exempted Employers and Private Employers. The main functions of the Directorate are to register

claims for injured/diseased employees; to adjudicate upon liability of a claim and to pay

compensation. This section of the report will be focusing on the aforementioned areas.

5.1.2 Registration and Processing of Claims

COMPENSATION FUND STRATEGIC PLAN 2014-2015

14

The Fund registered a total of 196 509 claims during the financial year, 192 967 were adjudicated (98%)

out of which 129 405 were accepted. Adjudication is the process of determining liability for the Fund, the

process involve accepting liability, repudiating and querying of additional information where no sufficient

information is available to decide upon liability of a claim.

A total number of 325 981 awards to the value amounting to R 480 186 515 were processed. All accident

occurred from the first of October 2011 were registered on a new system (SAP), whereas all claims where

accident occurred before October 2011 were registered on e-claims system.

5.2 Organisational Environment

COMPENSATION FUND STRATEGIC PLAN 2014-2015

15

The table below is an illustration of payments processed from 2008 until 2012. It demonstrates the trend/

the movement of payments. If we compare payments processed in 20011/12 and 2012/2013, it is the

obvious that there is a huge improvement in the number and amount of claim paid. One reason for the

increase could be that the system is now stable. In 2012/13 the amount paid has doubled as compared to

the previous years.

In February 2013, the Fund implemented a project to address backlogs relating to claims registration,

adjudication, quality control, legal reviews and PTSD. Thus far the backlog project has yielded the

following results:

• In February 2013 there were 240 000 unregistered new claims. All these claims were

registered and on 30 April 2013 there were only 1 609 new claims which remained

unregistered. Since May all new claims received were registered on the same day. The

benefits of this process is that clients are able to view claim numbers on the website and thus

submit all supporting documents, quoting the correct claim number;

• The Fund is now in a better position to determine liability (adjudicate) on all these new claims

and communicate the outcome to clients; and

• On the Legal reviews and PTSD backlog, the results were that claims could be processed and

placed on the court roll (until November 2013) and responses finalised on the long outstanding

PTSD claims.

The first phase of the implementation of the Migration Framework was completed and 317 contract

workers whose contracts ended on 30 September 2012 were permanently absorbed into the structure.

The Placement Panel consisting of organised labour and management of the Fund was established. The

purpose of the Placement Panel was among others, to ensure and oversee the fairness and consistent

application of the migration and placement process and advise employees of their right to lodge an

objection to any aspect relating to his or her placement or displacement. In addition, preparations for the

implementation of the new organisational structure on the Personnel and Salary Administration (PERSAL)

system were completed.

6. Description of the Strategic Planning Process

COMPENSATION FUND STRATEGIC PLAN 2014-2015

16

Capacity building initiatives were implemented during the year under review to improve the skills of

managers and staff in order to assist them in executing their functions and enhance productivity. In

addition, a number of Directors and Deputy Directors were enrolled in the Executive Development

Programme that is offered under the auspices of the National School of Government. Training needs were

identified and implemented in functional and generic courses.

The Public Private Partnership (PPP) contract with Siemens terminated at the end of November 2012.

The Department of Labour has invoked a termination support and handover period clause in the contract,

where Siemens have to provide support and maintenance to the Department for an extended period at a

set price, post the term of the contract. During the month of October 2012, Siemens was wholly acquired

by EOH which is one of the largest IT companies in South Africa. For the remaining period the IT services

were provided by EOH. The Exit and Transfer of the PPP progressed to ensure that all knowledge,

information, intellectual property, assets etc. are transferred back to the Department. During the last

quarter financial year 2013/14, the Fund will be reviewing IT governance processes to prepare for post

PPP contract.

The Strategic Plan guides all other planning processes within the Fund, including the development of the

Medium Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF), Annual Performance Plans, the Annual Budget and

Performance Agreements of Senior Managers, Managers, Supervisors and staff.

The Strategic Plan is reviewed and revised each year in preparation for the submission of inputs for

development of the MTEF. The development and implementation of the Strategic Plan is managed as a

value chain that realises the equal importance and interrelationships between all programmes within the

Fund.

The Compensation Fund Executive Management's convenes two strategic planning and performance

review workshops annually. The June/July workshop evaluates previous financial year performance and

identifies priorities for the budget requirements for the coming MTEF cycle. These are informed by the

Medium Term Strategic Framework (MTSF) and government service delivery outcomes. Programmes

conduct workshops to align strategic plans and translate the strategic plan into operational plans,

determine targets and performance agreements. The Executive Management signs off the following year

draft strategic plan for approval by the Minister in September of the current year. The mid-term review

workshop is conducted in October/ November of the same year, to review and evaluate performance

against mid-year targets.

The process towards developing the strategy was also informed by the Fund's statutory form of an entity (schedule 3: National Public Entity). The Fund conducted a PEST and SWOT analysis to develop its 5 Year Strategic Plan:

7. Strategic Outcome Oriented Goal and Government Outcomes

7.1 Medium Term Strategic Framework 2014-2019 and Government Outcomes

Government has agreed on 14 outcomes as a key focus of work, each outcome has a limited number

of measurable high-impact priority outputs and sub-outputs with targets. These 12 Outcomes reflect

government’s mandate and link up with the Medium Term Strategic Framework (MTSF) priorities.

There are two outcomes applicable to the Compensation Fund and these have now been the basis for
