Gestion durable du secteur de l’emploi : Ousmane Sonko dévoile les nouvelles mesures
With the aim of strengthening access to employment, Prime Minister Ousmane Sonko unveiled yesterday, in the Council of Ministers, an ambitious plan composed of reforms, strategic sectors, infrastructure and local projects for a "Senegal with sustainable employment".
“For the Prime Minister, sustainable employment management is essential to the nation’s economic and social life, in order to guarantee every Senegalese citizen the opportunity to access decent and sustainable employment. He noted that the employment sector faces cyclical crises generated primarily by the problem of integrating job seekers.”
He highlighted the low level of human resource qualification, resulting from insufficient supply due to weak business activity and insufficient development of high-potential sectors that provide employment,” according to the communiqué from the weekly meeting held at the Presidential Palace.
Ousmane Sonko also noted the mismatch between training and employment, the low employability, the inefficiency of the financing, supervision and support system and the constraints related to the Labor Code.
Therefore, he mentioned the measures taken by the government, implementing an inclusive process for developing a national employment policy, which will take into account the rationalization of governance structures, and strengthening the National State-Employers Convention as well as the provisions on apprenticeship and dual training.
Furthermore, the document continues, the government has committed to implementing the Social Stability Pact, in addition to signing the decree establishing the general status of local government employees and the decree setting the amount of the flat-rate allowance granted to non-civil servant employees of local authorities. This also includes the generalization of the housing allowance.
Even better, the Prime Minister believes that job creation will be driven by the development of strategic sectors, the resumption of infrastructure projects, the establishment of agro-industrial parks, and the development of the industrial base.
In this context, the government will work, in particular, on finalizing and adopting the framework law on employment, reforming the Labor Code and social security, evaluating and strengthening the organizational and financial structure of the National State-Employers Convention and streamlining the structures in charge of promoting employment,” it reads.
It is stated that "the Prime Minister also announced the strengthening of the link between employment and training, the pooling and optimization of structures, interventions and resources, the establishment of a major coalition for employment, the development of local employment in regional hubs, and the implementation of high-intensity labor projects (HIMO)." He also mentioned the "strengthening of employment centers and the establishment of local employment initiative centers (CIELs) at the departmental level, as well as local missions for employment and entrepreneurship at the municipal level."
