And, finally, tonight if you're between 17-22 and just entering the workforce you may be employed at a call centre.
It's a job that Belizeans are more and more likely to take up these days and this morning the Prime Minister told the press that the ever-growing BPO sector was adding a Jamaican company to its ranks.
Here's what the PM said about the company's entrance into the market and the explosion we're soon to see in the overall BPO sector.
John Briceno, Prime Minister
"Yes, and C.E.O. Garcia told me about it from before and we are having more of them coming and I think in 2019 we had probably about 1,500 employees in the BPO sector and because of the changes that we have done and the work that we have been doing, we are encouraging it, we expect to have as many as 12,000 Belizean working in the BPO sector. You may not believe me but we are having a tight labour market right now, and people are having difficulty in getting people to work. There are a lot of people that are unemployed but they are unemployed for two reasons, they don't want to work and two because they don't have a skill. Those that don't have a skill as a government we have to find a way of how we can find a way to give them some kind of marketable skill for them to join the labor force."
