ER24 urges the public to be aware of fake employment and learnership advertisements on social media seeking payment in advance as part of the hiring process. ER24 would not request payment for any job application or registration.
The modus operandi of such scams often requests money to be sent through informal channels such as money market counters or a cellular number as part of the application or training process. Fake positions usually advertised may include emergency care technicians, nurses, security, porters and other administration opportunities.
Common points that may indicate the advertised post may be a scam:
- Request for upfront payment or banking details as part of application
- Contact numbers are cellular numbers as landlines are ‘out of order’
- Legitimate-sounding names that resemble the company name (e.g. ER 24 or Medi-clinic)

If an applicant is unsure of the validity of an advertised position, they are urged to contact the Mediclinic Careers Centre on 0800 027 547 or email AskHR@Mediclinic.co.za.
