Nedbank said YES to creating youth employment opportunities, building communities and transforming South Africa. Nedbank has been a proud supporter of the Youth Employment Services (YES) initiative since 2019, and demonstrates Nedbank’s commitment to fostering job creation for the country’s unemployed youth and helping drive a more sustainable and inclusive country. To date, Nedbank has been the largest contributor among South African banks to participate in this initiative at a large scale, and has supported over 5 000 South African youth in equipping them with skills to either enter the job market or become entrepreneurs.
The YES Programme is a business-led collaboration with government to reduce unemployment by providing youth with an opportunity to develop new skills and gain meaningful workplace experience, which will in turn significantly improve their chances of finding long-term future employment.
