Employment in the telecommunications, broadcasting and postal sectors declined by 22.4% in 2021, a report by the Independent Communications Regulator of SA has revealed. This is despite revenue growth in these sectors. | Fin24

The telecoms sector, which includes large JSE-listed cellular network companies such as MTN, Telkom and Vodacom, led the decline, with a 35.8% dip in employment.

The increases are in line with the increasing growth that has been flagged by telecom companies since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic.
