Labour19599 sections
The Employment Exchanges Act of 1959 requires employers in all public sector organizations and larger private businesses, usually employing twenty-five or more people, to report their job vacancies to government employment exchanges before filling them. It also mandates these employers to regularly submit employment data and returns. This law matters because it helps the government monitor national employment trends, maintain accurate labor market data, and assist job seekers by ensuring vacancies are publicly registered. By regulating how job openings are reported, it promotes transparency in hiring and assists in national workforce planning and policy making.
