Post-Lockdown South Africa: The Virus Took Lives, The Lockdown Took Jobs

The virus took lives, the lockdown took jobs When a virus spreads, it often brings hardship as a plus one. And many South Africans are starting to feel the heat. Despite the continued rise in COVID-19 cases which have now exceeded 27,000 in South Africa, the country’s lockdown measures have been eased gradually since May 1, with the aim of ending strife by getting people back to work. But for many South Africans, there’s no work to get back to — not anymore. Apparently, there has been a flurry of job losses since the lockdown measures kicked in. Many people who were gainfully employed when the country shut down found themselves unemployed after the phased restart.  South Africa first went into a complete nationwide lockdown on March 26 and businesses began to feel the pressure almost immediately. Despite palliatives and fiscal stimulus from the government, many businesses have been unable to avoid the bloodbath that has seen many workers lose their jobs.

Job losses hit less-educated hardest

SAN FRANCISCO - (INT) - The COVID-19 recession has already led to much larger declines in employment than occurred throughout the Great Recession, and jobs have been lost much more quickly. As with past recessions, less-educated workers are bearing the brunt of these declines. Nationwide, almost 20 million workers lost jobs between February and April this year (among adults age 25 and over). Employment declined by about 7 million over a much longer period during the Great Recession. So far, less-educated workers—those without bachelor’s or graduate degrees—have accounted for 80% of all employment declines in the pandemic recession. Workers with degrees also tend to do better during economic recoveries. After the Great Recession, employment growth among educated workers was robust, but employment among less-educated workers never fully recovered. Employment among college graduates is much higher today (by about 11 million) than at the economic peak prior to the Great Recession. In contrast, employment among less…
