Abstract

South Africa's performance has been dismal in dealing with the rising unemployment that the economy has been faced with since the 1970s. The purpose of this paper is to develop a labour model of the South African economy, which will be used in follow-up research to investigate the structural nature of the problem and to consider the question of whether the phenomenon of jobless growth is true for South Africa.
