Threats won’t work
==============
Economic Times ( 03 Jan ) carries following news :
“ Skill Councils Told to Ensure Jobs by
Industry “
The government has
asked industry to provide jobs to personnel trained in their respective sector
skill councils, warning that future fund
allocation to the council will be withheld and unutilised money will be taken
back if there is no
increase in hiring.
The push comes ahead of general elections scheduled in 2019, where the slow pace of job creation could be a big issue.
The Ministry of Skill Development & Entrepreneurship, which funds the sector skill councils through the National Skill Development Corporation, has told them to ensure that their industry partners provide jobs to people who have been trained and that these numbers must be reflected on the smart portal created for the purpose, a person familiar with the matter told ET.
I am afraid such threats cannot force
Industry to hire persons it does not need and hiring will increase their cost
But , if you can make them see some
benefit , they will
Benefit such as lowering of “ manpower cost “ , which in turn , can help
them lower “ manufacturing cost “ ,
which in turn , can make their products / services , internationally “ competitive “
I urge the Ministry of Labour and
Employment and the Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship , to
persuade the Cabinet to implement my following suggestion , in order to reduce ( - will not “ eliminate “ ) unemployment :

Over-qualified :
Under-Skilled : Un-Employable ?
================================
It does not help to be “ Over-qualified “
And it is outright detrimental to be “ Under-Skilled “ ( in present case , “ Skill of
carrying files “ )
Here is the context ( Source : Indian Express / 05 Jan ) :
“ Look Who Applied for Peon’s Job that
went to MLA’s son “
Engineers , Lawyers , Chartered
Accountants , MBAs were among 12,453 interviewed for 18 class IV posts at Rajasthan Assembly
Secretariat ( - I guess , selected from possibly 100,000 who applied ? )
692
interviewed for EACH post !
To be precise :
·
129……………………… Engineers
·
23………………………… Lawyers
·
1…………………………. Chartered Accountant
·
393……………………. Post Graduates
·
1533…………………. Arts Graduate
·
23……………………… Post Graduates in Science
·
9………………………. MBA
REASON ?
For eligibility , Minimum Edu
Qualification prescribed, was…………. Studied until
Class V
I think it is high time , governments (
State + Central ) , clearly mention in their job advertisements :
Maximum Education Qualification ……….. 10th Standard
FAIL ( - in present case , of course ! )
This would save a lot of time / effort /
money – and frustration - , both for the Selectors and for the Candidates !
But , bureaucracy never learns !
