Fair Access to Jobs

A DA national government will create fair access to real and long-term jobs to ensure that there’s A Job in Every Home!

South Africa is a great country with people that are willing to work hard to realise their potential, and our nation’s potential.

But the country has taken a wrong turn from the path set by Madiba. Unemployment is oppressing us and there is no fair access to jobs, in fact it is among the worst in the world.

The ANC government only cares about enriching themselves and rewarding those close to them with employment.

This is not what we were promised. Not only have they failed to create jobs for South Africans, they don’t even know how to.
