The Minister of Employment and Labour Relations, Ignatius Baffour Awuah, on Friday inaugurated the newly constructed Public Employment Centre at Odumasi in the Sunyani West District of Bono Region.
The new facility, which would serve as the Regional office of the Ghana Labour Market Information System (GLMIS), is a pivotal initiative introduced by the Ministry of Employment and Labour Relations (MELR) in collaboration with the World Bank under the Ghana Jobs and Skills Project (GJSP).
Designed as an automated decentralised and integrated web-based portal, the GLMIS serves as a comprehensive platform for the collection, processing, evaluation and dissemination of labour market information.
The main objectives of the GLMIS is to address the challenges in the labour market by providing stakeholders, especially job seekers and employers with easy access to reliable and up to date labour market data.
