The Problem
Racism is still affecting the employment prospects of black and minority ethnic workers in the UK. Despite the introduction of Government initiatives like the New Deal and the new Race Relations Act, a recent report by the TUC revealed that the level of unemployment in the black and minority ethnic community is worse than ever ñ black and Asian workers are two-and-a-half times more likely to be victims of unemployment than their white counterparts.
The Causes
Although various reasons have been advanced as to why unemployment is high among black and minority ethnic jobseekers, employers have claimed that the main reason for this problem is because of the lack of effective avenues via which to communicate job vacancies directly to jobseekers from the black and Asian. Traditional mediums of promoting vacancies to ethnic minority jobseekers including company websites, national newspapers and general recruitment job boards have not been very effective. A new approach is required.
The Solution
After in depth consultation with members of the minority ethnic community, company directors and human resource managers, the prefect solution to alleviate the problem was devised ñ a dedicated recruitment website for black and minority ethnic jobseekers. The site WWW.EMCAREERS.CO.UK would present employers with an invaluable opportunity to advertise all their vacancies ñ FREE of CHARGE ñ to black and minority ethnic jobseekers. This innovative website would certainly present employers with an opportunity to promote their job vacancies to and effectively attract jobseekers from the black and minority ethnic community.
Unemployment is blighting the lives of Britainís ethnic minority workers and unless drastic measures are taken to curtail this social ill, a lot of talent from the community would go untapped. Logon to www.emcareers.co.uk to advertise your vacancies and start attracting talent from Britainís burgeoning minority ethnic community.
