Since 2008 after the economic crunch the world has been facing one of the greatest challenges of ensuring their younger population can fend for themselves and put food on the table without depending on the government. But since then the situation went worse but there are gradual changes of late though the numbers are on a steady rise. However, youth unemployment in South Africa has been at its all time low of the African States.
Statistics shows that the young people are making over one-quarter of the entire world working population. The number is even bigger when we look at the ones who are unemployed. When we talk about the youth, we are talking about anybody who is between the age of 18 and 28 years according to United Nations.
A person who is not having a job and is seeking some work to do is categorized as an employed. For someone to categorize as jobless, they must be willing to work but has not found a place to work. Over the years, the rate of joblessness among the twenty-year-old has been growing in South Africa. But the government recently is trying to put up measures to make sure this population of the country gets something to do.
The government statistic shows that the rate of unemployment in South Africa has reduced since the economy recovered from 2008. The statistics put the estimates at three percent that is fair compared to what other developing nations' record. It is, for this reason that youth in South Africa should not worry because the country is doing better though much effort should be put to it reducing it even further.
Before we look at the number of individuals that lack jobs, let us see the factors that hinder job distribution in South Africa. Citizens must start investing in proper education, and the government must do their part in terms of infrastructure and policy. People are becoming more educated and taking up courses that spur the countries growth and development. However, the number should be higher to meet the current demands of the country's market.
The university should make their courses relevant with what the market needs if they want their students to be marketable by the sustained growth in the South Africa. Some of the problems that youth face in the job market is also attributed to the over dependence on white collar jobs. Most of developed countries grew their economies from blue collar jobs that spurred the growth. This age group must demonstrate the willingness to put their creativity to use.
To start a company that will be successful, you must have the right ideas that will provide solutions to the society's problems. For this reason, the colleges and universities should make their students realize the full potential by providing the right conducive environment. The students must be creative and take the challenge of starting businesses that will transform the country. The best job you can always do is in your mind, and it is what will offer you the satisfaction you have desired.
In conclusion, South Africa should expose their young people to internship programs if they want the number of youths who are jobless to reduce. They should also tap into their talent because different talents spur economic growth.
