Measuring the contingency of organisational failure to upskill low-skilled jobs with training to preclude technological development job losses: A human resource development contemporary crisis

Zimkhitha F Juqu, Hlalele Matebese and Normah F Mutongerwa

The study aims to explore organisational oversight in the need to upskill low-skilled jobs through training to prevent job losses due to technological evolutions. This issue is a contemporary crisis that has massive implications for human resource development. The study utilised a theoretical lens as its research technique to gain a more in-depth comprehension of the complex nature of the problem at hand to achieve this objective. The results indicate that organisations fail to train low-skilled employees to reduce job losses attributable to technological advancements. As a result, these employees are at risk of losing their jobs due to the rapid advancements in technology. Therefore, this study argues that this is a crucial area that needs to be addressed in order to prevent job losses and ensure the longevity of these employees’ careers.
