Stats SA is expected to release the results of its quarterly labour force survey on Tuesday. Experts are expressing concern about the massive youth unemployment problem that persists in South Africa.

Job seekers stand in a line hoping to be picked for employment.

Statistics South Africa is expected to release the results of its quarterly labour force survey on Tuesday. Experts are expressing concern about theFormer Statistician General Padi Lehohla says access to quality education is the only answer for dealing with the high youth unemployment. Others say the government needs to liberalise the economy to create conditions for job creation.

Research by Statistics SA shows that a growing number of young people have been discouraged by the labour market and are also not building on their skills base through education and training. Lehohla says the government’s youth employment programs are not enough to adequately deal with the problem. “A million less among the 15 to 24 were employed in 2020 compared to 2008. 500 000 were employed in the 25 to 34 level in 2020 compared to 2008. Now tell me whether there’s a youth programme which actually supports this? The story is very disturbing, yet the President says we have employed so many among the youth.
