dc.description.abstractThe purpose of this study is to examine turnover and retention of social workers in the non-governmental (NGO) sector of the Cape Metropolitan Area, Western Cape, South Africa. While it appears to be much needed in South Africa, social work is known to be a scarce skill with high levels of organisational turnover. The Department of Social Development issued a Draft Recruitment and Retention Strategy in 2006 to address the problem of scarcity of social workers. The author aimed to establish whether the NGO sector has any similar strategies concerning the scarce skill declaration.en_ZA
