The government, through the Ministry of Labour and Social Protection, has launched the National Skills Inventory. The initiative to collect employment data aims to systematically identify and document the entire spectrum of skills present within the country, aligning with the overarching goal of facilitating the skills migration agenda.
This action comes in response to a directive from President William Ruto issued during a cabinet meeting on January 15. It also comes just a week after the inauguration of the interdepartmental committee on the National Skills Inventory.
This committee was assigned the responsibility of creating a framework to showcase the skills of all Kenyan job seekers, aiming to tackle the ongoing unemployment issue.

“The rollout of the National Skills Inventory will play a critical role in enhancing the job placement of unemployed youth. This initiative demonstrates the government’s commitment to enhancing youth employment and is well aligned with the constitution of Kenya, which affirms the right of the youth to access employment,” said Principal Secretary in the Ministry of Labour Shadrack Mwadime.

All unemployed persons are mandated to input their skills information into the National Skills Inventory by accessing a provided link on the Ministry’s website. Both public and private employers have been instructed to post their job orders and opportunities on the inventory.

Additionally, they are required to submit their annual employment returns to the National Employment Authority before the deadline of February 29th.
