AN ANALYSIS OF THE PERCEPTIONS OF GRADUATE UNEMPLOYMENT AMONG GRADUATES FROM A SOUTH AFRICAN UNIVERSITY By P. Mncayi Read the introduction section and answer the question that follows. Introduction A Unemployment is one of the most persistent and contentious economic challenges in South Africa. The situation is even more critical among young people, threatening both social security and the country's long-term economic growth and development vision. Young people constitute a large percentage of the unemployed (Festus et al., 2015). For example, somewhere around 2008 and 2015, the unemployment rate among 15 to 24 year olds averaged at more than 50 per cent, while the 25-34 year olds averaged at more than 29 per cent; rates higher than those of adults (Stats SA, 2016). Various efforts have been made to overcome unemployment with approaches such as entrepreneurship. However, one of the approaches has been education. The role of education in employment attainment is well-recognised (Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), 2008; Stats SA, 2014). Giuliano and Tsibouris (2001) identified that unemployment declines with the level of education. In other words, the more people educate themselves, the better their chances of securing a job. State whether the following statement is True of False. Question: Unemployment is less prevalent among young people in South Africa. Select one: True False
