Dec 24, 2013 News

 

 
Government has helped to secure jobs for more than 2,500 people for the year, according to Central Recruitment and Manpower Agency (CRMA.)
Labour Minister, Dr. Nanda Gopaul said that from the 2,954 persons who registered for jobs between January and December this year, the Ministry’s Central Recruitment and Manpower Agency was able to find jobs for 2,548.
Dr. Gopaul said that this year has seen an average number of job placements compared to previous years. The minister said that in 2011, of the 2919 persons registered for jobs, 2009 were placed at various agencies and in 2012 when 2825 persons registered, 2865 received gainful employment.
According to the Minister the CRMA was successful in finding employment for thousands of Guyanese last year and, the Labour Ministry under whose purview it falls, is hoping to have similar success this year.
“That is working pretty well, that is collaborating with other agencies around the country and, we are sharing information. We have been able to place a few thousands in jobs last year and, this year we are hoping to do the same…we want all the skills we can have to harness the resources of this country,” he noted.
The CRMA made its services available online in 2010 through a public/ private sector modernisation and e-governance programme that  allows persons with access to the internet to make submissions if they are seeking employment from anywhere in the country.
Active jobseekers can log onto the CRMA website (http://www.crma-gy.com/) and register as a member. Correspondently after registration, an employer can publish information on the website about the vacancy available. This is followed by a telephone contact to certify the details for the vacancy. Once this information is established, a jobseeker will be selected.
