HONOURING THE EVERYDAY HEROES
Mail & Guardian
|May 02, 2025
Workers' Day is more than just a public holiday. It’s a day for reflection, dedicated to the unsung heroes of our workforce who are dutifully keeping our economy alive every day.

At Rand Mutual Assurance (RMA) this belief is not new, nor is it a reactive one. For over 130 years, we have understood that workers are the heartbeat of our economy. Everything we do flows from this core conviction: from our prevention initiatives, rehabilitation efforts as well as injury-on-duty claims administration to our curated insurance services.
This Workers' Day, we reflect on the enduring values and principles that are embedded in RMA's purpose and remind us why we exist. We commit to protecting, uplifting and empowering workers, with support that matters.
The Role of a Social Insurer in a Changing World
South Africa's history is shaped by labour and our present is sustained by it. RMA is about the wellbeing of labour, at work and beyond.
