More than one in every 10 workers in England are incompetent at their jobs, a survey of 72,100 employers suggests.
I certainly know of some people in my co. that were incompetent at their jobs (Including one guy who I suspect was going for some form of record) but the bit that doesn't surprise me is the 40% of employers had provided no training in the previous 12 months.
I've managed to get that first hand in 2 different places; The one course that I wanted to go on at my current employer they said that as we some people in the co. already had the skill (SQL in this case) that they could run some internal training instead.
Have admit that the story doesn't make nice reading, I don't like to find out that my cynical view is in fact correct.
As usual, the full story is
