EMPOWERING EMPLOYEES for self-sustainability Introduction A business is only as strong as its people. At Potchefstroom Academy and The South African Academy for Hair and Skincare Technology (SAAHST), we believe that responsive, customized, need-based training makes the difference between a good workforce and a great one. As the Fourth Industrial Revolution will have a huge impact on skills, tasks and jobs, there is a growing concern that both job displacement and talent shortages will impact business dynamism and societal cohesion. On the one hand, large parts of the labour market will be impacted by intelligent systems and automation - a transformation we can already observe today. On the other, it is evident that technological integration will change the business models of all industries, giving rise to a number of emerging jobs. A proactive and strategic effort is needed on the part of all relevant organisational stakeholders to manage reskilling and up skilling to mitigate against both job losses and talent shortages. Furthermore, with the impact of automation, various organisations are finding themselves in the process to retrench employees. A major factor keeping countries from being able to fight poverty is the inaccessibility of higher education or training. The solution - by empowering your employees with the opportunity to learn scarce skills or skills that can provide them with an income. Through this, organisations are not only investing in the employee’s future, but can also obtain valuable BEE-points and claim skills development levies. It is also the responsibility of organisations to invest in community development and upliftment. What better way than skills development to individuals in rural areas to ultimately help them to be self-sustainable and to escape poverty.
