Economic growth will require the efficient and effective mobilization of resources for investment in the strategic sectors of the economy. Jordaan continues by stating that by deploying these talented resources to areas such as FMCG, Warehousing, Transport and Banking, we contribute to the economic growth by means of keeping our resources within our own country. Jordaan continues by saying that the Key Objective is to attract and retain these people to live and work in South Africa to support the economic growth. "We are renowned for the high quality of our own people." With the unemployment figures in SA, Labour broking offers the solution to keep our own.
With Labour Broking we ensure the sufficient supply of suitably talented individuals, to meet current and future needs of the labour broking market in SA. The government guides us to pay Skills Development Levies, which in turn educate our workforce. The long term unemployed were largely from the blue-collar and manufacturing areas. One view is that they were displaced by the impacts of globalization, new technology, restructuring of the economy. In general they did not have the skills needed for the newly emerging industries, such as information technology.
Ultimately the relentless increase in the incidence of long-term unemployment reflects a continuous growth in the labour market to provide work for certain categories of people, which contributes to our economic growth. Lastly, the traditional Labour Broking term refers to blue-collar workers, but during recent years, white-colours were included, and many companies prefer this way, they brand it under Outsource, but it gives the company the opportunity to focus on their core function, whilst Labour Brokers, like Enlist, take care of the operational tasks. This in itself contributes to the economic growth in our Country.
When asked "What is the contribution of the industry to skills development and transfer? " Jordaan replies that Labour Broking Companies are encouraged to have a social plan in place long before a contract is ended, as this ensures, among other things, that workers get skills that they can use once their employment with the specific client is terminated, enabling the labour broking company to place them on another contract. The importance of learning and development or otherwise referred to as capacity building has been emphasized from an early stage in this industry. We include a wide variety of actions, such as development days, induction sessions and job shadowing, but perhaps the most important activity so far has been the formation of Learning and Development plans in conjunction with succession planning. Our internal policy encourages us to grow our human capital, plan their future, not only growing the individual, but also the role they play within our company.
Jordaan continues to explain the Industry sectors of Labour broking and states that Labour Broking can be a solution to all industries, as described above, the focus moved away from being a traditional blue-collar environment to a combination of Blue & White Collar environment. We currently operate in the FMCG, Warehousing, Industrial, Banking, Engineering, Telecommunication and IT Sectors.
