The vast majority of South African deskless workers enjoy their jobs, although low wages and public transport are daily stressors.
This is according to the 2024 Deskless Worker Pulse, a research report by Jem HR – a WhatsApp-based HR and employee benefits platform for frontline workforces.
Deskless workers fill roles in the food, hygiene, security, logistics, retail and other sectors, and represent 75% of the national workforce. “These are essential workers who often operate under challenging conditions,” states Nonsuku Mthimkhulu, Head of Customer at Jem.
