Free for workers. Always.
Africa has the world's youngest workforce. Hiring still runs on who you know.
Businesses across the continent are growing faster than their ability to hire people they can trust. Workers are ready, but invisible. The layer in between is agents, relatives, roadside boards and paper guarantor forms.
of employment in Africa is informal: no contract, no record, no verified work history.
ILO, 2018young people enter the labour market every year, competing for roughly 3 million formal jobs.
African Development Bankis the median age on the continent. The workforce of the next 30 years is being hired now.
UN DESAWhat employers deal with
- Candidates arrive through agents or referrals, with no way to check identity or history.
- Guarantor forms and references sit on paper and are rarely confirmed.
- Early churn means rehiring the same role again and again.
- Contracts and statutory compliance are patchy across labour suppliers.
What workers deal with
- Agents take a cut of early wages, or charge just to put a name forward.
- Skills learned on the job don't count without a certificate.
- Every new job starts from zero. No record follows you.
- Pay arrives late, in cash, with no proof of income.
