04 March - Labour - Competition for talent to hot up in 2010

In today's show, we spoke to Samantha Crous - General Manager of the CRF Institute – the employer brand research and marketing organisation that conducts the annual Best Employers South Africa research. According to the Grant Thornton International Business Report majority of businesses around the world are more optimistic for 2010 this means employers anticipate a more upbeat employment market unlike 2009, which was a tough year for job seekers. Samantha says South Africa is at the cusp of a recovery – gross domestic product (GDP) grew by 3.2% in the fourth quarter of 2009, exceeding market expectations – which means organisations need to engage with the talent attraction or retention issue or they could face losing key people.
