1 (2003.4) (1) MEDIA RELEASE FOR RELEASE ON SKILLS REQUIREMENTS OF SMALL BUSINESS ESTABLISHMENTS IN NORTHERN TSHWANE A study conducted by the Bureau of Market Research (BMR) at the University of South Africa (Unisa) shows that just more than one out of every three owners of one-man business establishments in the peri-urban areas of Northern Tshwane (erstwhile Boputhatswana homeland areas) is functionally illiterate (ie lacking a grade seven qualification). Owners of these businesses also lack essential financial/accounting, information technology and business skills required for the effective management of small business enterprises. Notwithstanding the fact that the rate of small business formation showed significant improvements since the incorporation of the erstwhile Bophuthatswana into South Africa in 1994, the research results reflect a relatively high risk in the medium to long-term survival rate of small businesses with 20 or less full-time workers. The BMR applied a skills analysis approach to determine the current effectiveness and ability of these small business establishments to create employment and generate economic growth over the medium to long-term. The skills analysis model was based on the assumption that through training better skills levels of the workforce can be achieved, resulting in the potential for investment returns in terms of higher productivity, competitiveness and profitability. The basis of the skills analysis was to investigate the qualification levels of owners/managers and employees with specific focus on the current and future financial/accounting, information technology and business skills.
2 (2) Worker qualification levels The qualification levels of workers (owners/managers and employees) of small businesses are shown in figure 1 below. The figure reflects information for survivalist/micro (0 employees), micro (1-4 employees) and very small business establishments. Survivalist/micro establishments included those with only one full-time owner who operates without any employees. Micro establishments included those with one owner and no more than four fulltime employees. Very small establishments included those with between six and twenty fulltime workers (owner included). FIGURE 1 PERCENTAGE OF FULL-TIME AFRICAN WORKERS BY QUALIFICATION AND BUSINESS SIZE Degree/Diploma Grade Grade Below Grade ABET % Survivalist/micro Micro Very small Total
3 (3) Figure 1 shows a direct correlation between business size and qualification level. For example, a higher percentage of workers in the micro and very small business sectors have grade 8-9 or grade qualifications compared to workers in the survivalist/micro sector. In turn, a higher percentage of workers (35,9 %) in the survivalist/micro sector have a grade eight and below, compared to those employed in the micro and very small business sectors. Of the total survey population, 8,1 % of the full-time workers have a degree/diploma. Only 2,0 % of the full-time workers have received Adult Basic Education and Training ABET (defined as education provision for people aged 15 and over who are not educated). Notable from figure 1 is that just more than a third (35,9 %) of the 53 owners of survivalist/micro establishments interviewed lacked functional literacy (grade 7). In 1999 the Centre for Adult Education and Department of Adult and Community Education estimated that a total of (or 12,7 %) adults (people aged 15 years and older) in Gauteng have a schooling of below grade 7. In terms of basic (grade 9) and functional (grade 7) literacy levels, the survey findings reflect relatively high risks in the medium to long-term survival rate of especially survivalist/micro establishments. Future skills needs The BMR study specifically emphasised the potential advantage of skills training pertaining to the development of generic skills types. Generic skills are those that can be applied across a variety of jobs/occupational groups and are not specific to a particular industry or vocation. More specifically, financial/accounting, information technology and business skills were analysed by the BMR as typical generic skills types of importance for future small business development. The outcome of the skills analysis revealed that current financial/accounting, information technology and business skills levels of owners/managers and employees are rather basic and need to be broadened further. Specific skills which require attention are reflected in table 1. (4)
4 TABLE 1 FUTURE SKILLS NEEDS OF WORKERS IN SMALL BUSINESSES Skills needs Owners/managers Employees Financial/accounting - Computerised bookkeeping - Recording of and accounting for cash transactions - Data processing, storage, retrieval and supply of financial information - Drafting financial statements Information technology - Basic Internet and skills - Computer programming skills - Computerised bookkeeping - Basic Internet and skills Business - Public relations skills - Marketing/communication skills - Labour relations skills - Merchandising/selling skills - Stock control skills - Labour relations skills - Marketing communication skills More specific critical skills shortages identified included senior, general and production management skills and office, stock and accounting/bookkeeping skills. Clearly, owners/managers regard these skills as critical for the effective management and operation of a small business establishment. Although the need for training is evident from the survey findings, the current training initiatives by small business provides limited evidence that the situation is likely to change in the immediate future. Currently only one in every five small business has a future skills development plan in place, while as little as 10 % maintain training records. Consequently, the medium to long-term survival rate of small business establishments that lack the aforementioned skills and skills infrastructure is placed in jeopardy. This has direct implications on increased unemployment and poverty in the periurban areas of Northern Tshwane. For any sustainable medium to long-term growth to materialise in the small business sector, the skills base of workers needs to be broadened to improve the efficiency and competitiveness of small businesses. Raising skills levels of small business workers could further contribute to better prospects for community development and social upliftment.
