With the launch of the Ekiti Labour Market Information System (LMIS), the next critical step is data collection — and that begins now with the Data Collection Initiative.
🚀 What’s Happening?
This initiative will collect real-time labour data across Ekiti’s local governments, focusing on:
- Employment/unemployment figures
- Sectoral labour needs
- Skills supply vs. demand
- Informal economy dynamics
- Gender, youth, and rural labour participation
🎯 Why It Matters
For the EKiti LMIS to work, it needs good data. This initiative ensures the platform doesn’t become a static tool but remains alive, relevant, and responsive.
- Job seekers get better guidance and matching
- Businesses get clearer insights for hiring
- Policymakers can design targeted interventions based on actual demand
🧩 Who’s Involved?
- Employers – to report job trends and hiring challenges
- Schools & Training Centres – to align curriculum with need
- Local Government Agents – to drive grassroots data collection
- Community Leaders – to raise awareness and trust
🔊 A Call to All Stakeholders
Participation is not optional — it’s the engine that makes the LMIS run.
“We count on you,” the Ministry said, “to turn data into impact.”
This is about more than numbers. It’s about building a future where no talent goes unseen, and every Ekiti citizen has a fair shot at opportunity.
