Unemployment problem in Bangladesh
Unemployment is a great concern in Bangladesh. Every
year hundreds of thousands of students are
coming
out from college and university. Though it is one of the major responsibilities
of the government to provide job to those young generation but the government
is failed to meet the job demand for the large population. Only a tiny fraction
of total jobless is managed by different government offices and private
organizations but a majority remain unemployed
Causes of unemployment:
Population growth: Bangladesh is a country of
over population. There job facilities can not keep pace with the increasing
number of people.
Lack of industrialization: Bangladesh
is very backward in industries. They can absorb only a finger-counted number of
people. Cottage industries have almost decayed.
Defective education system: Bangladesh
education system is very defective. It has little provision for vocational
training for a learner. It fails to give him an independent start of life.
False illusion: The students and
youths have false sense of dignity to become officers. They madly run after the
illusion of official jobs and remain unemployed.
Lack of skill: There is a serious
want of skilled people in bangladesh. The inventory knowledge is fully absent
in them. As a result, the unskilled people remain unemployed.
Lack of proper utilization of
resource: The country has not yet been
able to make proper and best use of the huge hidden natural resource.
Due to unemployment conditions, there
arises some problems in our country such as----1.financial losses of the
unemployed workers, 2.burden on the tax payers, 3.national economy suffers from lower out-put, 4.desperate
people resort to crime to have basic necessities of life, etc
Solutions:
The first is to open
more governmfinanent industries, large scale businesses where more people can
be employed. The second is to make more people literate, so that they can get
jobs and add a value to nation's income . The third is to attract foreign
investors in our country to invest in trade & commerce, education &
agriculture to meet up the crisis of
employment.
Unemployment problem is a great
social evil for bangladesh. It has given
rise to various social crimes. An unemployed man falls in the grip of poverty
and loses mental peace. Life becomes burden to him. He becomes a hungry man as
well as an angry man. Then he gets involved in different anti-social
activities. A proverb also goes, 'an idle brain is the devil's workshop'. This
problem is getting more and more acute day by day. It is posing a great threat
to the very existence of the nation.
