Last update: 5 hours ago

South Africa’s Jobs Crisis: Unemployment rose to 33.7% in the third quarter, with 8.58 million people out of work. The economy added 101,000 jobs, but not fast enough to keep pace with the workforce. Hiring Gaps: SASSA has 228 vacant posts despite R147 million set aside for recruitment. Jobseeker Safety: South Africans are being lured into overseas trafficking scams by local recruiters, highlighting the risks of fraudulent offers. Skills Pipeline: Toyota has reopened its upgraded South African training academy as the country faces an artisan shortage. New Jobs: Dangote projects 90,000 jobs from refinery and fertiliser expansion in Lagos.
