Vacancies exist and people are looking for work, yet employers continue to report difficulty finding the specialised skills they need.

Where does this disconnect lie? Are the right skills available in the market? Are certain occupations becoming increasingly scarce? Or are new skills gaps emerging as industries and business requirements evolve?

The 2026 Critical Skills Survey gives employers, HR leaders, and recruitment professionals an opportunity to share what they are experiencing and help build a clearer picture of South Africa’s critical skills needs.

What skill does your organisation struggle to find?

Faster visa processing can mean more than administrative convenience. For employers, it means getting senior executives, engineers, and technical specialists into their roles sooner.

Current Trusted Employers have reported a significant reduction in processing times and a 96% success rate on correctly prepared first-time applications. Preliminary findings from Xpatweb’s 2026 Critical Skills Survey also show that more than 80% say participation has made a positive difference.

Aadil Wadee, Senior Immigration Consultant at Xpatweb, looks at the results behind the Trusted Employer Scheme and what they could mean for companies recruiting international talent into South Africa.

With Phase Two closing on 4 September 2026, companies should assess their eligibility rather than assume they do not qualify.

Reaching the qualifying points threshold is one part of a Trusted Employer Scheme Phase 2 application. Being able to substantiate those points is equally important.

Employers need to support the information and points claimed in their application with the appropriate evidence.

With applications closing on 4 September 2026, there is limited time remaining to identify and address gaps in your supporting evidence.

The question is no longer simply “Do we qualify?”

It is “Can we prove that we qualify before the deadline?”
