79% of South African Consumers Say Household Income Negatively Impacted by COVID-19
Almost eight in 10 South Africans (79%) said their household income has been negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The newly released research from TransUnion (NYSE: TRU) found that an additional 7% of South African adults said they expect that their household income will suffer in the future.
The survey also found that one in ten (10%) of impacted respondents have already lost their job as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Some provinces were impacted more than others, with this figure at 12% for the Western Cape, 11% for the North West and 10% from Kwazulu Natal and Gauteng respectively, with the younger generations more acutely affected by job loss.
