Details on Casablanca's employment strategy with thousands of job openings until 2017.
Live in Casablanca? Looking for a job? You then have 8,700 chances of finding work until 2017. Indeed, 8,700 jobs will be created under a series of agreements signed today at the headquarters of the metropolis's prefecture.
Specifically, the Anapec (National Agency for the Promotion of Employment and Skills) is partnering with several companies recruiting in Casablanca. They will be supported by the Agency to meet their human resource needs. In total, about twenty partnership agreements will link Anapec on one side with the provinces and prefectures of the region, and investors and civil society associations on the other.
In detail, the Agency headed by Anas Doukkali is committed to supporting fast-food giants like McDonald's and KFC, but also the Swedish global giant specializing in flat-pack furniture, Ikea, in recruiting their employees. These three large companies are respectively looking for 750, 500 and 400 employees. These needs are spread over the next two years.
Also on the agenda are other agreements signed notably with Sews Cabind, which will benefit from Anapec support in meeting its human resource needs, which amount to 1,750 people until the end of 2017. Two other companies, namely Intelcia and Sindipark, will also launch a recruitment drive for 500 and 200 employees respectively. This is therefore a real employment strategy for the metropolis. However, this strategy is not limited to recruitment.
Employability
The other agreements signed today aim to strengthen employability and support the creation of businesses by young people. In this sense, a tripartite partnership between the Ministry of Tourism, the Ministry of Employment and Social Affairs and the Anapec will result in support and assistance to graduates of training institutions under the supervision of the Ministry of Tourism nationwide with a view to their integration into working life.
There is also a partnership agreement between the Agency and the provincial human development committees of the Greater Casablanca region aimed at promoting income-generating activities through awareness-raising, support and financing for the region's underprivileged. The Greater Casablanca Regional Investment Center (CRI) also signs an agreement to encourage the establishment of businesses in the region and to boost the creation of micro and small businesses by young graduates.
Civil society is not left out. Agreements are planned with Injaz Al-Maghrib to support young project leaders and project idea holders in the creation of Very Small Businesses (VSBs), as well as with the Moroccan Foundation for Education for Employment "EFE Morocco" to support young graduates facing difficulties in integrating into working life and improving their employability through training services.
Finally, the last two agreements concern the association L'Heure Joyeuse, which will provide assistance to job seekers in difficulty, and IYF (International Youth Foundation Morocco), which will support job seekers in difficulty in their job search to integrate into working life through Life Skills training following the IYF's "Passport to success" program.
