The
unemployment rate in South Africa remains one of the highest in the world and
over the past year it has become harder to fill positions, with the demand for engineers and
skilled
trade-workers at its highest.
This is
according to Manpower South Africa’s tenth annual Talent Shortage Survey,
released on Monday morning. Since last year, there has been a marked increase
in the difficulty of filling positions, the survey found. In 2014, only 8% of
South Africa employers surveyed reported difficulty in filling job vacancies,
but this year, 31% of employers reported difficulty.
The survey,
which sampled 750 local businesses, reported that the most difficult positions
to fill this year, in order of difficulty, were: Skilled trades, engineers,
management/executive staff, accounting and finance staff, sales
representatives, secretaries, personal assistants, receptionists,
administrative assistants and office support staff, drivers, technicians,
teachers and IT personnel.
Lack of technical skills
When
employers were asked why they had difficulty filling jobs, the survey found 52%
of them cited environmental or market factors, 47% mentioned a lack of
technical competencies or hard skills and 46% cited a lack of
available applicants or no applicants at all for the position.
Thirty
percent of South African employers cited the lack of industry-specific
qualifications or certifications in terms of skilled trades as a challenge,
while 26% mentioned a lack of candidate experience. Furthermore, 19% of
employers identified organisational factors as an issue, while 15% cited
industry-specific qualifications and certifications in terms of professionals
as a challenge.
“South Africa’s continued skills
deficit is being compounded by a lack of technical skills, which is having a negative impact
on employment across many sectors of the country’s economy,” said Lyndy van den
Barselaar, managing director of Manpower South Africa. “Furthermore, there is a
high instance of poverty among South African youth, leaving millions unable to
pursue secondary and tertiary education or training, which presents a challenge
in terms of their skills development and employment prospects.”
Innovative
solutions
The skills
deficit has caused employers to seek new innovative ways to face the skills
challenge.
“When asked what strategies they were pursuing to overcome the difficulties created by the skills shortage, 44% of South African employers said they would be adopting people practices, while 36% said they would be exploring new talent sources,” Manpower South Africa said.
“Meanwhile,
31% said they would be providing additional training and development to
existing staff, while a further 29% said they would focus on developing new
skills. Twenty-eight percent of employers said they were focusing on enhancing
existing skills in their businesses, while 25% said they would appoint people
who do not currently have the necessary skills, but have the potential to learn
and grow.”
With 31% of
employers reporting difficulty in filling posts, South Africa is moving closer
to (but still fares better than), the global average of 38%, as determined by
ManpowerGroup’s research.
“Globally, employers in Japan continue to report the greatest talent shortages, with 83% of employers struggling to fill open positions. At the other end of the scale, employers in Ireland report the least problems with talent shortages, with only 11% of employers struggling to fill jobs,” the company said.
Lisa Steyn
is a business reporter at the Mail & Guardian.
The labour expert attributed South
Africa’s skills shortage to emigration of high-skilled workers, immigration
restrictions for high-skilled foreigners and a dysfunctional education system.
At present, there are an estimated 470,000
vacancies in the private sector which are positions that could be filled almost
immediately if the skills were available, Adcorp said.
However, Sharp said: “South Africa
simultaneously possesses a surplus of unemployed graduates. At present, there
are an estimated 344,000 unemployed people with degrees, diplomas and
certificates.”
“Although a tertiary qualification remains the
most successful indicator of finding employment (90% of graduates are
employed), the remainder fail to find employment because their qualifications
do not match those sought by employers.”
