Better competence and work environment development leads to better job matching

Unfortunately, the trend in working life today is towards people being ignored as robots in militant systems that only benefit the owners in the short term. Militant organizations are ineffective and lead to increased ill health and social losses, as is now happening within SJ and within the care factories. This ultimately leads to a lack of many kinds of skills within various sectors of working life.

People are often needed in hard-working and low-paid professions such as preschool teachers or nurses. Or civil engineers, economists and IT developers are needed. Many find these professions too heavy, difficult, unhealthy or not focused enough on what it means to be human.

We must reverse the development of working life so that as many occupations as possible go from being unhealthy and non-developing to becoming healthy, creative, collaborative and meaningful.

Then we need to improve the conditions for these deficiencies so that people find them attractive. There could be technical basic knowledge schools for the unemployed where the job seeker could acquire a basic technical competence and understanding in fun ways. For nurses and preschool teachers, it is important to increase staff density, think about the working environment and increase salaries so that people are also attracted to these professional areas.

For those who already have a qualified education or professional experience, there must be other opportunities for development money to train for what they feel best at.

In the future, we need to think about skills development opportunities throughout life, a strong emphasis on work environment development and equal pay development so that people can find themselves where they are needed.

Work is not only for creating salary and profit. It is an important ingredient to give people meaningful employment where they can express their competence to create benefit for someone or make society better.
