Africa-Press – Eswatini. <\/strong><\/span>The Ministry of Labour and Social Security hopes to achieve six goals set in line with the Decent Work Country Programme (DWCP).<\/b><\/p>\n

One of the goals set out by the ministry include reducing the unemployment rate from 33 per cent to less than 20 per cent by 2025, which is informed by the country\u2019s second generation DWCP for 2022 to 2025. This was revealed by the Minister of Labour and Social Security, Phila Buthelezi, in a statement issued yesterday, as the country\u2019s workers, together with the rest of the world, were celebrating the International Workers Day. Buthelezi highlighted that it was just about five months\u2019 time now since His Majesty\u2019s Government, together with the social partners, that is, the Workers and the Employers Federations, signed and launched the country\u2019s second generation DWCP for 2022 to 2025.<\/p>\n

Implementation<\/b><\/p>\n

The minister mentioned that according to the results matrix of the DWCP, in the event that all their attention, focus and resources could be dedicated towards ensuring the maximum implementation of the DWCP, some of the results which the ministry stood to achieve by 2025 include the proportion of the population living below the national poverty line, would be reduced from 58.9 per cent to 50 per cent by 2025. It also includes that the unemployment rate, disaggregated by sex, would be reduced from 33 per cent to less than 20 per cent by 2025 and one regulatory framework would be in place by 2025 to promote equal pay for work of equal value.<\/p>\n

Others include the number of new gender-responsive policies, legal, and regulatory frameworks adopted and implemented to improve the enabling environment for business and job creation would have increased by at least two every two years, including national and sector focused interventions; the number of new measures adopted and implemented to improve job creation through new enterprises (formal and informal) would have drastically increased by 2025, regard being had to government\u2019s commitment to improve the enabling environment for informal micro, small, medium enterprises (MSMEs) growth to promote growth and job creation.<\/p>\n
