A stampede to conduct job interviews in a hotel in the Indian state of Gujarat caused unfortunate events, among hundreds of young people who had gathered to apply for only ten jobs, and the collapse of the iron barriers surrounding the place.
The incident occurred as the chemical company “Thermax Company” was organizing interviews for its factory in the area, and a video clip showed the horrific scenes of young people trying to enter the hotel in a desperate attempt to obtain a job opportunity.
Despite the chaos and stampede, there have been no reports of serious injuries so far, but the incident has raised widespread concern about safety measures in such large gatherings and employment methods in times of economic crises.
The company that announced the recruitment, “Thermax Company,” is a multinational company based in Pune, India. It was founded in 1966 and works in the fields of energy, environment, and chemicals. It has 7,023 employees in India, according to the company’s website updates for the year 2023.
India’s official unemployment rate is 3.2%, which understates the extent of the problem, so most economists rely instead on data from the Center for Monitoring Indian Economy, a private research firm, which estimated the unemployment rate at 9.2% in May 2024, which is higher. level in eight months.
