Abstract
The Jesuit Centre for Theological Reflection (JCTR) wishes to extend a strong encouragement to all stakeholders, especially government, to begin immediately implementing the National Employment and Labour Market Policy.Improvement in the livelihood of Zambian households depends not only upon how many new jobs are created, but on what type of jobs are created and who the main beneficiaries are. The JCTR particularly agrees with the policy’s strong focus on support of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs). However, the JCTR expresses concern that the strategies within the newly launched National Employment and Labour Market Policy may not be prioritised within key planning frameworks such as the 2006 National Budget, the Fifth National Development Plan and the Medium-Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF) for 2006-2008.
Description
Increasing employment with decent working conditions allows for more Zambians to engage in a wide variety of employment ventures and ensures quality of employment. This statement includes the reaction of JCTR to the launch of the National Employment and Labour Market Policy and its strong encouragement to immediately begin implementing the policy.
