There are far too many people in South Africa who do not have basic education skills such as reading or writing. These people also normally do not have the means to improve their status as they do not have access to education facilities or do not have the available funds to pay for education. It is thus imperative that every business in South Africa get involved in educating their workforce at the most basic levels. A better skilled workforce will not only help improve the bottom line of your company but according to statistics, the overall economy of the country will improve.
