What is Job security?

Job security is the assurance that you'll keep your job without the risk of becoming unemployed. Your job could be secured through terms of an employment contract, collective bargaining agreement or labor legislation that prevents arbitrary termination. Where there is no job security, employees are at high risk of losing their jobs.

High unemployment rate is a critical problem in Namibia.

The crisis is better captured by statistics from the Namibia Statistics Agency, which shows that the unemployment rate of Namibians between the ages of 15 and 34 years has increased from 43,4% recorded in 2016 to 46,1% by the end of 2018.

In addition, the unemployment rate of those aged between 19 and 34 stands at 44%.

The report also indicates that out of the 854 567 youths under 34 years, 71,3% have only junior secondary and primary education, while 34,5% have no formal education.

According to the ministry of labour's quarterly report (January to March), there were 2 225 youths registered on the ministry's Namibia Integrated Employment Information System (NIEIS).

With 913 having certificates, diplomas, degrees and post-graduate qualifications, only 41 were placed. All of those placed either have a certificate or diploma.

Nobody with a degree or post-graduate qualification was placed during this period.

The National Labour Force Survey for 2018 indicated that out of the unemployed population, more than 17 800 have more than a diploma, and 43% of the unemployed people spent more than a year without employment.

The Namibian Police, one of the largest employers of school-leavers, recently announced that it will be recruiting only 700 cadets countrywide, 50 per region. The security institution has also raised the minimum academic requirement to 30 points in Grade 12 – even more than what the country's universities ask for.

The police, through inspector general Sebastian Ndeitunga, also stated that priority will be given to those with qualifications comprising three years or higher of tertiary studies in criminal justice, police science, police practice, and any field of policing, law, ICT or equivalent qualifications

Let us make a move. Let 2021 be a year of finding your dream job, your career, your successes.

Government responses to Covid 19

In a first reaction on 14 March, when the first cases were confirmed, government suspended air travel to and from Qatar, Ethiopia and Germany for 30 days. All public and private schools were closed for a month, and large gatherings were prohibited. This included celebrations for the 30th anniversary of Namibian independence that was to take place on 21 March.[12] Libraries, museums, and art galleries were also closed.[2] On 17 March President Hage Geingob declared a state of emergency as a legal basis to restrict fundamental rights, e.g. to freely move and assemble, guaranteed by the Constitution. The prohibition of large gatherings was clarified to apply to 50 or more people.[13]

Beginning 27 March, a 21-day lockdown of the regions of Erongo and Khomas was announced. Inter-regional travel was forbidden, excluding the commuter towns of Okahandja and Rehoboth. Parliament sessions were suspended for the same period, and bars and markets were closed.[9] "Large gatherings" were redefined to 10 people.[14] It was later clarified that the closure of bars applies to all of Namibia, not just the regions under lockdown.[15]

The water supply of households that were cut due to non-payment was ordered to be reconnected. This resulted in large crowds queuing at municipal offices in Windhoek, causing concern over the violation of social distancing.[16]

On 14 April the lockdown was extended to 4 May. It now officially applies to all regions, although the stay-at-home order was already enforced countrywide. Some of the lockdown conditions were amended, such that now fishing counts as essential service, and open markets as well as informal trade are allowed to operate. An Emergency Income Grant was set up to distribute N$ 750 to every person that lost income or faces otherwise difficult conditions due to the lockdown. 350,000 people applied for this grant.

Top 10 importance of a school management system.

+ KEEP CALM AND WAIT FOR NEW SYSTEMS THAT ARE COMING

1.Ease in Attendance Reporting:
Being able to take student’s attendance is usually a primary feature on most School Management Software. The software is able to provide a wide variety of reports on attendance by class, individual student, gender etc for the whole term. Some systems even send an SMS to a parent as soon as a child is marked absent, which would make them think twice about skipping school without reason. The use of pen and paper for attendance purposes is so old school.

2. Effective Communication:
The School Management Software should have a feature which helps parents, teachers and the school administrators stay connected. Bulk SMS, email or special notifications are used to send reminders about school activities before they happen, during or after as a way of thanking the parents for their participation. Such communications should be made possible through the software without any hassle.

3. Transportation Track:
A feature that enables the school administration to track the transport vehicle (school bus) is a massive plus to the school as they can monitor the routes of their transport vehicle. This feature would reduce the tension of parents about their child’s security and restore parent’s confidence in the school.

4. Better Exam Management:
Managing Examinations is one of the essential features and importance of school management systems, although not all schools like multiple option exams, they might prefer hands-on participation from their students. Whatever they decide, the platform should be made available and records generation made easy. If assessments are carried out outside the platform, results can be inputted and graded. Moreover, records can be generated from the information provided. This information (result) can also be made available to the parents to access from anywhere at any time.

5. Easy Fee Payment:
The stress of standing on long bank queues to pay fees can be reduced to the barest minimum or completely overhauled. The School Management Software should provide a platform that allows parents to make fee payments online. This would be a more convenient method for the parents and to avoid late fees issues, the School management software should be able to send an SMS update about fees that have not been paid.

6. Admission Management:
Another Importance of School Management Systems is admission management which should help the school administration manage data and reduce the bunch of files and paper used. This feature allows data of every student to be stored and accessed at any time even after they have graduated from the school. The errors caused by human error or duplication would also be avoided.

7. Homework Management:
A platform where students can download, upload or submit an assignment or homework, notes & project work. The School Management Software should be made accessible to all parties that need to interact with it. Tasks should be customizable and allow integration of colors, pictures, videos, .and other attachments and made available to students as soon as it’s sent out. The software should ease the process for students who wish to refer to the old assignments or notes, for study or other purposes.

8. Staff Management:
A School Management Software should effectively and fluidly manage workers tasks and activities. It should ease the staff attendance process. At the end of the month, the software should be able to calculate the amount of salary of staff based on their attendance and send their wages based on the results, automatically. Moreover, payments could also be made with a single click directly to their bank account.

9. Parent Access:
The importance of School Management Systems can be seen in the ease parents interact with the school. The School Management Software should provide a platform to keep parents engaged and informed about their kid’s performance and activities as It will be difficult for parents to regularly visit the school in other to stay connected to their child’s academic achievement. This information should be made available on the software at any time, ranging from their performance to assignments or projects their kids are currently working on or have worked on, and attendance too. That way they can keep track of their child’s progress.

10. Inventory Management:
A School Management Software should allow librarians to keep track of books that are checked out or checked in, check what books are in stock, can buy books from vendors, and organize the books by author, genre, or title. The system should also allow the storekeeper to keep track of items taken from the store and generate a report based on the current stock any day, anytime. The system should also have a notification for depleting stock; flags should be raised based on the urgency
