Editorial standards
The principles RAF Guide uses to publish clear, independent legal information.
Primary sources first
RAF Guide prioritises official RAF and South African government material. We link sources on published guides so readers can check the information themselves.
Plain language and limits
We explain terms in plain English and state when a point depends on individual circumstances. We do not tell users that they qualify, calculate compensation, or give legal opinions.
Reviewing content
Guides display their source-review date. If official material changes or a factual issue is identified, the guide is reviewed and updated.
