YEA Partners with G4S to Create 6,000 Security Jobs for Ghanaian Youth
The Youth Employment Agency (YEA) has entered into a one-year partnership with G4S Security Services to provide employment opportunities for 6,000 young Ghanaians in the security sector. This agreement, formalized through a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), aims to address youth unemployment while strengthening the nation's security workforce. The initiative will see YEA collaborate with G4S to recruit, train, and deploy qualified individuals across various security-related roles. YEA's CEO, Malik Basintale, emphasized the agency’s commitment to creating sustainable job opportunities and equipping the youth with the necessary skills to build successful careers in security services.
This partnership comes at a time when demand for skilled security personnel is on the rise, and it reflects a strategic effort to empower young people while enhancing safety in communities nationwide. The recruitment process is expected to commence soon, providing eligible candidates with a chance to gain professional experience and contribute to national security efforts. Beyond just offering employment, this initiative underscores the broader objective of fostering economic growth and reducing joblessness among the youth. As YEA and G4S work together to implement this program, it marks a significant step toward improving both employment prospects and the overall security landscape in Ghana.
