job creation

Current Situation

• In today’s world of globalization and technology, it has become difficult to create and sustain jobs.

• It is becoming cheaper for developed countries:– to import commodity needs from other parts of

the world or – have them be manufactured in lower wage

countries such as Mexico or Brazil.

A solution to the Job Creation goal

• Machinery is replacing labour in the workplace as they do not sleep, take leave, stay away, strike or ask for increases.

• Machines work 24 hours per day 7 days per week 365 days per year non stop.

• Machines are more efficient and reliable than humans, hence companies are starting to evaluate the reduction of staff more seriously.

A solution to the Job Creation goalReality

• The recent global economic collapse led to large scale job losses.

• The economic recovery will not result in all these people getting jobs again.

• These factors when all put together, are driving increases in our already high unemployment rate in SA.

• The Eastern Cape is the worst affected region
