The graph below depicts the occupation types within the Municipality.<br />
The largest percentage of people employed within the Municipality is employed as<br />
technicians and associate professionals. Only 4% of employment opportunities are found<br />
within the professional sphere. A large number of people are employed in administrative<br />
posts as clerks, which corresponds with Ulundi being the former capital of KwaZulu-<br />
Natal and currently the seat of the Zululand District Municipality. The largest economic<br />
driver within the Municipality is agriculture and the low percentage of employment<br />
within this sector indicates the seasonal nature of agricultural employment. These<br />
workers are most likely included as part of the non-classified occupation category (NEC).<br />
IDENTIFYING AREAS OF NEED<br />
The CSIR, in conjunction with the University of Oxford and the HSRC developed<br />
Indices of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) using the 2001 Census Data. The IMD ranks<br />
wards in terms of their comparative levels of deprivation based on a composite taking<br />
into account:<br />
Income and Material Deprivation<br />
Employment Deprivation<br />
Health Deprivation<br />
Education Deprivation<br />
Living Environment Deprivation<br />
