Produktinformationen zu „Frans Barker's The South African Labour Market (ePub)“
Sociopolitical occurrences in recent years have, if anything, brought to the fore the close relationship between developments in the labour market and progress on the socio-econo-political terrain. The ideological divides in South Africa are especially apparent in the labour market, and these compound the basic conflict between the objectives of protecting basic worker rights on the one hand, and increasing economic growth on the other. The South African labour market contains an abundance of information about labour markets in general and the South African labour market in particular. The South African labour market has a down-to-earth and practical approach. It considers the evidence and identifies some urgent discussion points about the sensitivity of employment to economic growth. Three appendix chapters deal extensively with the impact of globalisation on the labour market, how other countries have managed the challenges of globalisation, and consensus-seeking institutions such as Nedlac. Questions and study suggestions are included at the end of each chapter.Contents include the following:Unique characteristics of the labour marketLabour supply and labour demandEmployment in the formal and informal sectorsWages and the cost of labourUnions, collective bargaining and minimum wagesProductivity and labour market flexibilityUnemployment and active labour market policy for job creationHuman capital and the demand for skilled workersInequalities and discriminationThe South African labour market is aimed at economics students as well as general readers wanting an overview of the South African labour market.
