摘要

Purpose This study examined the effect of COVID-19 on the acquisition of employable skills among national service personnel in Ghana. Design/methodology/approach The study adopted the cross-sectional descriptive survey design from the positivist paradigm to collect data from a sample of 2,263 out of a population of 77,962 trainees (national service personnel) posted to the public (85.1%) and the private (14.9%) sectors for the 2019/2020 service year.Sampling techniques were simple random, stratify and snowball sampling techniques and Google form softcopy questionnaire was used for data collection. Findings The study found that COVID-19 had made workplaces and work schedules very risky for trainees' acquiring employable skills in Ghana because their employers/trainers' were unable to provide adequate PPEs for trainees.Preventive measures such as mandatory leaves, reduced workload/working hours and shift system had reduced the duration for acquiring employable skills which could affect employability and aggravate graduate unemployment in Ghana.The sustainability and quality of job opportunities presented by COVID-19 to graduate trainees-farming; trading and online teaching could also not be guaranteed. Research limitations/implications It was recommended that employers/trainers should provide adequate PPEs, introduce teleworking with the necessary tools and training for their trainees.Educational institutions should provide work-based learning methods in their curricula to enhance employable skills for national service graduates.Government's support for trainees venturing into self-employed job opportunities presented by the COVID-19 was also recommended Practical implications It was recommended that employers/trainers should provide adequate personal protective equipment (PPE), introduce teleworking with the necessary tools and training for their trainees.Government's support for trainees venturing into self-employed job opportunities presented by the COVID-19 was also recommended. Originality/value This paper has not been published anywhere.
