Uninzi lwethu kwilizwe elingenzi nzuzo lunokuthi ixesha lamavolontiya anikela kwimibutho yethu lixabisekile. Kwaye kuyo yonke indlela kunjalo.
Nyaka ngamnye, nangona kunjalo, i-Bureau of Labor Statistics kunye neCandelo eliZimeleyo libeka ixabiso kwixesha lamavolontiya anikela kwiinjongo zesisa. Imibutho engenzi nzuzo inokusebenzisa le mali ukulinganisa ixabiso elikhulu elinikezelwa ngamavolontiya abo. Ixabiso lesizwe eliqikelelweyo lexesha lamavolontiya ngo-2012 (lihlala lisemva konyaka) yi-$22.14 ngeyure – ukunyuka ngama-35 eesenti ukusuka kunyaka ophelileyo. Apha eCalifornia, izinga liphezulu kakhulu - i-$ 24.75 - i-57 yeesenti ukusuka kunyaka odlulileyo.
Olu qikelelo lunceda ekuqondeni izigidi zabantu abanikela ngexesha, iitalente namandla abo ekwenzeni umahluko. Ngo-2012, amavolontiya anikele ngaphezu kweeyure ezingama-312,000 ukutyala, ukukhathalela, nokukhulisa amahlathi asezidolophini aseCalifornia. Loo nto ilingana ne-7.7 yezigidi zeerandi zobuchule kunye nexesha elinikiweyo! Nangona eli nani limangalisa, sisacinga ukuba amavolontiya axabiseke kakhulu.
