Funeral Hamper

The Zambia Union of Government and Allied Workers (UG) offers compassionate support to its grieving members through the provision of a funeral hamper incentive. This assistance is unique, as it extends not only to the contributing member but also benefits their immediate family members. Currently, the value of the funeral hamper ranges from K500 to K1000; this amount depends on the specific relationship between the bereaved member and the deceased.


To initiate the process of claiming this supportive incentive, a bereaved member must complete the funeral hamper request form. This form requires the submission of a death certificate, which serves as proof of the request, alongside a payslip that verifies the member’s active membership status. These requirements are essential to ensure a smooth and efficient claim process. We strongly encourage all members to make their requests through our official website. By doing so, they can significantly reduce waiting times and facilitate faster access to the support they need during such a challenging time. Our aim is to provide prompt assistance to help ease the burdens associated with loss, allowing families to focus on what truly matters during their time of grief.
