As per the agreement, the Israeli Government has made public the list of 1,175 Nepalis selected for employment in their country.

The shortlisted Nepali youths will get the opportunity to work as caregivers and in hospitals, nursing homes, and daycare centers.

Israel is one of the most lucrative foreign employment destinations for Nepalis. The Middle Eastern nation provides most of the jobs related to caregivers.

The post Around 1200 Nepalis Shortlisted for Foreign Employment in Israel appeared first on Nepali Sansar.

53 percent of Nepalis were devastated as they lost their jobs during this second-wave lockdown. Additionally, the lockdown measures claimed both the jobs and income of 40 percent of the citizens.

The survey, which was performed during the third quarter of May 2021, was conducted by Sharecast Initiative Nepal with the help of UNICEF. The survey was conducted across 3,000 families with kids across Nepal.

People the witnessed income loss in the form of remittances and sales dips. Other sources of additional income were also impacted.

The survey concluded that agriculture and tourism, Nepal’s most significant employment sectors, suffered the most. This triggered the massive Nepali downslide on the employment front.

The employment seekers of Bagmati and Karnali were the worst hit, as per the survey.

“This large-scale job and income loss threaten to further deteriorate the socio-economic well-being of children and their families,” the survey said in its findings.

The survey cautioned that due to loss of income, most families might trim down food consumption and other essential requirements to ax expenses. About 99 percent of families are not receiving any monetary support to spar with these unexpected hardships.

UNICEF’s survey, Child and Family tracker, observed that more than 60% of households with kids suffered livelihood and economic losses in the initial two months of the lockdown.

Despite most of the aggrieved families recovering from the loss since 40 percent of the families are prone to slip into poverty, UNICEF emphasized.

Acting on the startling conclusions of this survey, UNICEF has transferred monetary resources to Nepal to safeguard over 10,000 children. The United Nations agency has commended Nepal on the expansion of the Child Grant Program and the social security allowance boost. The Nepali government has hiked the social security allowance 33 percent.

“It is important to increase the amount of the transfer to deal with the additional stress caused by the pandemic,” the UNICEF survey said.

Among other South Asian countries, Nepal is ranked at No. 4 alongside Maldives, while Bhutan, Bangladesh and India are ranked way behind Nepal projecting a 2030 status of 81, 55 and 47 percent of unskilled high-school graduates, respectively.

The survey titled Voices of Youth interviewed 32,000 young people in South Asia and revealed their concerns on how they were being prepared for the modern job market.

It was found that South Asia is much below the global average in terms of preparing the next generation of young people for jobs in the 21^st century.

Drawing inferences from the statistics, the UNICEF concluded that an estimated 54 percent of South Asia youth will leave school without acquiring the skills to get a decent job throughout the next decade.

Many young people from the region are of the opinion that their education system is outdated and do not prepare them for jobs.

Among the key barriers they face while searching employment, 26 percent students cited lack of work experience, 23 percent said that they received inadequate support services to improve employability and 44 percent point at rampant corruption in the employment sector outlined by bribery and unfair hiring practices.

The data has been jointly collected by the Global Business Coalition for Education (GBC-Education, the Education Commission and UNICEF.

“Every day, nearly 100,000 young South Asians – a large sports stadium of young people – enter the labor market, almost half of them not on track to finding 21st-century jobs,” said Henrietta Fore, Executive Director, UNICEF.

An overview of the Nepal Education System shows that it still has to go a long way in terms of producing an able, problem-solving and critical thinking generation.

The concerned department has already begun searching for institutes that provide professional training to foreign job aspirants across the local and provincial levels.

The training will be offered in five key areas such as cook, security guard, waiter, steel fixers, wiring electrician, cleaner, housekeeping, plumbing and scaffolding.

According to the department statistics, around 70 percent of Nepali migrant workforce going abroad are unskilled.

Nepal Planning Commission (NPC) has already prepared a concept note and also held discussions with the federal and provincial governments’ officials last week.

“The vision paper is being drafted to give the country a clear direction in achieving the long-term goal of prosperity for the people after the country gained political stability with the elections last year. The main goal of the vision paper is to achieve minimum level of development to be recognized as a developed country by 2043,” said NPC Vice-Chairman Pushpa Raj Kadel.

Besides the Long Term Vision, NPC is also working on a new five-year periodic plan for implementation from the coming fiscal.

While Nepal’s per capital income stands at USD 1,012 currently, the vision aims to double it in the next five years.

In line with this, the ruling government is considering the current fiscal as the foundation year for the country’s future economic prosperity. Government is aiming at an 8 percent economic growth rate in the current fiscal and plans to double it over the coming five-year period.

• Achieve gender equality
• Ensure balanced conservation of natural resources and their utilization for income generation

Recently, the Nepal Labor, Employment and Social Security Ministry (MoLESS) has begun collecting various opinions from stakeholders including youth leaders from various political parties on the upcoming employment scheme.

Nepal Youth Leaders Opinions & Suggestions
Speaking at a recent survey program for youth leaders, Rashtriya Janata Party-Nepal Youth Leader Ranjeet Kumar Singh called the program a ‘first-of-its-kind’ program in Nepal, where millions of youth opt for foreign employment.

“Such schemes have been introduced in our neighboring countries, but never before in Nepal. In the absence of such government efforts, even educated people are migrating abroad and are forced to take up menial jobs,” said Singh.

He adds that the government should create jobs opportunities for the youth based on their geographical regions.

Similarly, Nepal Congress – Youth Wing Nepal Tarun Dal Uttam Chapagain suggested that the Nepal Government should give equal importance to vocational training under the program.

“Unemployed youths should be provided with skill-based training so that even uneducated people can have income opportunities and earn respect for what they do. As an agricultural country, the program should generate jobs in the farm sector,” said Chapagain.

In addition, Nepal Communist Party’s Youth Association Nepal (YAN) President Ramesh Poudel emphasized on the need for creation of a ‘Development Force’, which can be used for ‘big developmental projects in the country’.

“Such force should be developed under this program so that they get to work and contribute to nation-building. Also, various scattered programs of giving employment to youths should be merged into one,” adds Poudel.

Scope of the Employment Scheme
The ambitious project aims to create a minimum of 100,000 jobs in the country, per year and will engage Nepal unemployed youth in agriculture, forest & environment, animal husbandry and reconstruction, among the total 11 sectors.

MoLESS has also collaborated with Nepal private sector to generate employment in the aforementioned sectors, which will undertake prestigious projects including ‘National Pride Projects’.

“All Nepalis will have pride working under this common program, which is meant for everyone in the working age. Youth’s skill, energy and enthusiasm will be utilized in the country,” said Gokarna Bista,  Pointing that foreign employment should be an option and not a choice of compulsion.
