Dear Member

 

You’re reminded that there are just three days left for you to cast your ballot for the EPPF Board of Trustee elections. The voting window will close on Monday, 12 February 2024 at 16:00. 

 


The term of the current board will end in May this year so it’s important that you have a say on the new board members who’ll be selected to represent your interests. Remember that in order to ensure a free and fair process, the independent KDBS Consulting is overseeing the election. 

 

It’ll take just a few minutes to cast your ballot. 

 

How to access information about the candidates 

You’ll find all the information you need, including details about the candidates who are contesting for positions on www.eppfelection.co.za 


Four easy ways to cast your ballot

  1. Online: Click here to vote now.
  2. From your phone: Dial *134*7717# on your phone and follow the prompts.
  3. WhatsApp: Send "Vote" to +27 79 572 3206 on WhatsApp and follow the prompts.
  4. At a physical site: You will be able to get assistance at a physical site until 12 February 2024 between 8:00 and 16:30 on weekdays, which means you have today and Monday to use this option. Site addresses are listed on the elections website.

 

You need your pension or unique number and access key to vote

  1. You will have received your unique access key via email and/or SMS. This access key must be used with your pension/unique number to vote.
  2. Your pension/unique number must have a total of 9 digits in order to vote. So please add zeros in the beginning to make it 9 digits.
  3. You must continue the process all the way to the end when you’ll receive a confirmation code. If you do not receive a confirmation code, your vote will not be counted so please avoid exiting the voting process before you complete it.
  4. If you struggle with voting on one platform, consider using an alternative method of voting.
