These learners will then be paid directly by the City.</p><p>The learners have been placed at the City Facilities Management depots in Milnerton, Philippi, Bellville, Somerset West and at the Cape Town Civic Centre.</p><p>'I would like to welcome the 31 new City of Cape Town employees to our team with a common purpose and vision of what we believe our City facilities should look like and how we are to maintain it. This partnership will definitely assist in addressing the high youth unemployment rate in our country and it delivers on the vision of all of the partners involved, which is to ensure sustainable growth for these learners. With programmes such as these, we aim to break down barriers to economic inclusion in our city.
