Eskom Gauteng hubs close due to Covid-19
This precautionary measure in Gauteng at this point is informed by a greater possibility of exposure to the virus which may affect both Eskom employees and customers.
According to a statement issued by Eskom on March 20, Eskom Gauteng will, with immediate effect, temporarily close all its customer service hubs as a precautionary measure due to the Covid-19 pandemic. This includes the one in Kleinfontein office park, Benoni CBD.
Eskom employees will, however, continue to provide services to customers through other Eskom electronic media channels.
