Welcome to National Directorate of Employment (NDE)
The national Directorate of Employment (NDE) was established in 1986 following a compelling necessity for the establishment of a permanent organizational mechanism to tackle the problem of unemployment in Nigeria. The global economic recession in the ‘80s had become progressively worse for the developing countries in general and for Nigeria in particular. There was drastic reduction in capacity utilization and consequent outright closure of industries in the country. Equally, other macro-economic policies of the government of the day such as the Structural Adjustment Programme (SAP), devaluation of the naira, privatization and commercialization of the economy, etc,
resulted to masses job losses in both the public and private sectors of the economy. Accordingly, unemployment rose from 4.3% in 1985 to 7.0% at the beginning of 1987 because of the bad situation earlier stated.
