Workforce localization of chinese construction companies in kenya yating luoEric Olander
?
Chinese companies make up a significant part of Kenya's construction industry. While workforce
localization is commonly perceived as limited, surveys found that over 90% of employees at Chinese
firms in Kenya are locally hired. However, Chinese construction companies face challenges related to
technical skills, work ethics, soft skills, and logistics of local workers. Obtaining work permits and an
inadequate skilled local workforce were among the top obstacles reported. Formal recruitment systems
are largely absent, and engagement with local stakeholders is limited. While workforce localization has
become a reality, challenges remain in institutionalizing practices and community involvement.Zambian Perception of Non-Indigenous Groups: Caucasians, Chinese and Indians

Trends in U.S. and Chinese Economic Engagement in Sub-Saharan AfricaEric Olander

The report examines trends in U.S. and Chinese economic engagement with sub-Saharan Africa from 2001 to 2011. It finds that while both countries have seen substantial growth in trade with the region over this period, China's trade has increased at a faster pace and surpassed U.S. trade in 2009. The report also finds that data on China's foreign assistance and investments in sub-Saharan Africa is limited. Case studies of Angola, Ghana, and Kenya show that the U.S. and China emphasize different approaches in their engagement. The U.S. focuses on development assistance, while China pursues increasing engagement through infrastructure loans. Competition between U.S. and Chinese firms is limited, with each concentratedJob destruction in the South African clothing industry
Job destruction in the South African clothing industryEric Olander
?
The document discusses job losses in South Africa's clothing industry as a result of rising minimum wages imposed by the National Bargaining Council for the Clothing Manufacturing Industry (NBC). The NBC, supported by a large union and some employers, has been enforcing compliance with higher wages among Chinese-owned factories in Newcastle, KwaZulu-Natal that employ over 16,000 workers and comprise the most labour-intensive part of the industry. If these factories are forced to close due to inability to pay the higher wages, it could significantly undermine labour-intensive growth in South Africa's clothing sector.Rethinking the Peripheral: A Study of Chinese Migrants in Lesotho

Essar 2.0 Rising with a New Approach.pptxessarupdate
?
The Essar Group, one of the leading players in the country¡¯s corporate landscape, recognised for its extensive investments and innovative projects, had a challenging phase in the late 2000s and early 2010s. The company was burdened with Essar Insolvency and debt repayments and thus had to sell few of its assets to strengthen its balance sheet. It later underwent a major transformation by adopting a new business model that is focused on asset-light operations. Though the new Essar is a smaller company than the old one, it is a much more focused and agile company. With a revenue of USD 15 billion, and Assets Under Management (AUM) of USD 9.6 billion Essar is well-positioned for future opportunities.The Future State Of Work - Actionable Summary for Startup Founders
