Ageeed, Andy. Perhaps a more detailed breakdown of those not working is required - age, reason for not working, etc? Perhaps also statistics on what jobs immigrants are doing - ok, many work in health and care services, hospitality, etc; however, I know also there are US citizens working in technical and management jobs in the UK subsidiaries of US companies such as Google, Microsoft, etc. They, and their partners, may, of course, be in the UK on a temporary basis - although I can think of some who've been in the UK for several years, but they do speak pretty good English - or a version of it! And are some of these immigrants students funding our higher education system? I would agree that there should be better training to meet current employment requirements. We should also perhaps "educate to learn" so people can cope with a rapid changing workenvironment. And, Mr Sunak is correct when he says we need better maths education; I can remember network engineers struggling with classless inter-domain routing and its IP subnet masking requirements because they struggled to "think binary" :-) But training is only part of the issue; people have to have a personality fit for the job: I doubt I'd have the patience to work in a care home, other's wouldn't like to grapple with binary, octal and hexadecimal arithmetic while some pedantic people make great IT testers; and, an interesting point is: given all these vacancies why is it so difficult for skilled, experienced people in their 50s who are made redundant to find new employment? |
