“Creating green jobs is of vital importance if we want to address issues like climate change and the rehabilitation of our wetlands.” Her reply indicated that for the 2022-23 financial year, the annual target was 600 green jobs while the actual output of these was “to be confirmed”. “This is the same disappointing scenario as from the 2021/2022 financial year.” “The failure to achieve green job targets in the past two quarters highlights the department’s sluggish response and it is highly unlikely that it will achieve its annual target of creating 600 green jobs for this financial year,” she said. [International Labour Organisation](https://mg.co.za/tag/international-labour-organisation/) defines green jobs as jobs that are decent in sectors, including agriculture, manufacturing or services that reduce the consumption of energy and raw materials, limit greenhouse gas emissions, reduce waste and pollution, protect and restore ecosystems and help in adapting to [climate change](https://mg.co.za/tag/climate-change/).

Ncayiyane was employed by eThekwini around December 2016, shortly after Gumede started her ill-fated tenure as the mayor.
[hired as a “helper” for former mayor Zandile Gumede](https://www.iol.co.za/sunday-tribune/news/appointment-of-durban-mayors-helper-questioned-16033908) has emerged from the wilderness to get a top job in the KwaZulu-Natal department of sports, arts and culture. “Ms Ncayiyane is suitably qualified to hold the position of Head of Ministry in line with legislated norms and standards on the appointment of staff in the offices of the Executive Council. It is not clear in the CIIU report why she was deemed not qualified for the position, as according to her official CV provided with consent to IOL, Ncayiyane by then held a National Diploma in Public Management from the Mangosuthu University of Technology, a Bachelor's degree in Technology Public Management from the Durban University of Technology and a Certificate in Public Diplomacy from the Diplo Foundation. She later resigned to join her in the City and landed the job that kept her on the side of Gumede, raising eyebrows. Thabisile Ncayiyana's name features prominently in Gumede's corruption investigations.— Sihle Mavuso (@ZANewsFlash) Her employment sparked a probe by the City Integrity and Investigations Unit (CIIU) after it was alleged that she did not have the required qualifications to take up the senior management position that came with a salary of R50 000 a month.
New data from Stats SA shows that unemployment is rising among all levels of education in South Africa, but those with a tertiary qualification still have ...
“Education plays a vital role in a person’s prospect of finding employment and retaining it. “Education continues to play an important role in the labour market. While South Africa lost 1 million jobs between 2016 and 2021, by the end of Q4 2022, this has climbed to a net gain of 154,000 jobs. Unemployment increased progressively with lower education levels, however. Those with higher levels of education stand a better chance in employment meaning people with tertiary education are more likely to be employed compared to people with matric and below matric education levels,” the group said. New data from Stats SA shows that unemployment is rising among all levels of education in South Africa, but those with a tertiary qualification still have the best chance of finding a job.
“As Americans return to the workforce, some employers are finding it easier to hire without having to recruit as aggressively,” Pollak wrote in the study. “ ...
[nearly 11 million job openings](https://www.bls.gov/news.release/jolts.nr0.htm), even workers who have been [unceremoniously laid off](https://fortune.com/2023/03/14/meta-layoffs-10000-mark-zuckerberg-year-of-efficiency-hiring-freeze/) tend to find reemployment quickly. (That said, just 16% of the new hires ZipRecruiter spoke with said they were forced out of their previous job.) Even though job growth has become more concentrated in fewer industries after many months of incredible broadness across the economy, Pollack says it’s still “firing on all cylinders” in industries Americans are spending on like healthcare, leisure, and hospitality. And men were more than twice as likely as women to describe their current job as their “dream job.” The good news is that 70% of those people who did [switch jobs](https://fortune.com/2022/04/23/job-hunting-overqualified-experienced-candidates/) saw an increase in their pay, with the average increase coming in at 25%. Twenty-nine percent said they received a signing bonus (up from 27% the previous quarter).
For professionals with an extended career break, returnship programs provide a way back to work. Companies are starting to recognize their benefits, too.
Not only can returnships normalize return-to-work following career breaks, they can also keep more women in senior roles, and contribute to the end of the gender pay gap. For those who have taken an extended career break, returnships can provide a pathway back into the workforce, plus a reboot of their technical skills and confidence. Yana Rodgers, the director of the Center for Women and Work at Rutgers University, says she’s spoken to women whose qualifications have been questioned because of a career break. “It’s not just about what’s new in technology, it’s also adapting to the new workplace because things change so quickly,” says PwC’s Yanoff. According to The Mom Project, a talent marketplace for women, the majority of returnships have a participant-to-hire rate of at least 80%. “Women are being tracked into these lower-paying jobs, whether it’s before they have kids, while they have kids, or after they have kids.” Returnships are one way of keeping women on an upward career trajectory. Returnships provide a way to reenter the workforce without starting over at the bottom. “We take a lunch break and we talk,” she says. “They know themselves better, they have lived more life, they have a better sense of where they can add value to an organization,” she says. “Training on how to collaborate, how to engage, how to be virtual, how to be in presentations. And while the effects of Covid have helped to normalize career breaks, professionals who have stepped away for more than a few years still find it difficult to return. “They’re in a relatively stable life stage, and they have an energy and enthusiasm about returning to work.”

Last Updated on 17th March 2023. Jalees Ahmad, Al Hakam. Ayyub. Jobas, commonly known and referred to as أيوب [Ayyub] in Islam, was a prophet of Allah.
This description and account provide some insight into the landscape that Jobas had to navigate during his migration and was told “by God to urge on his riding beast as there lay ahead a fountain of cool, sweet water where he could take rest, satisfy his thirst and take a bath.” (Five Volume Commentary, Vol.4, p. A study of this scene reminds the reader of the migration of the Holy Prophetsa, from Mecca to Medina. Hazrat Khalifatul Masih Ira states that this was in fact a prophecy, as the Holy Prophetsa was also, soon, to migrate to Medina. With a study of the verse, one can deduce that Jobas had to travel through a hilly area that contained springs and fountains. Here, he was commanded to strike and urge his riding beast with his foot so that he could quickly reach a place of safety. Satan complained to God about Jobas, alleging that he was insincere in his worship and merely did it to keep his wealth and the riches he was granted. Here, in this verse, the word shaitan refers to the cruel leader of that time. “The story of Jobas is said to bear a close resemblance to that of Harish Chander, a Hindu saint and a rich man. He endured many hardships in his life and became separated from his family and followers. He added that some Muslim commentators and Western scholars say that Jobas was a descendant of Esau, the elder brother of Israelas, the son of Isaacas. It is mentioned in the Bible that he lived in “the land of Uz.” (Job, 1:1). It is said that Jobas lived there before the departure of the Israelites from Egypt.” (Five Volume Commentary, Vol.4, p.2108)

You just reach a point in time where you realize that it's probably time to start to get off the court," Bohmback said. "And unfortunately, about a month ago, I believe he had a massive heart attack, and, I mean, he dropped dead. "I calculated that I probably officiated 500 games with Bruce," Bohmback recalled. "I was working full-time and [had] three kids," his wife said. So, I always believe, like many good officials, that communication on the court," Bohmback said. "And that has sustained me through these years because I am formed so many terrific friendships."
