{KN}Creating jobs for local people helps a business meet its social objectives by improving the economic well-being of the community.
{APP}For example, a new supermarket in Lahore that hires staff from the local area provides employment opportunities, increases household incomes, and helps reduce unemployment in the community.By employing local people, the business contributes to social welfare, strengthens its relationship with the community, and builds goodwill and a positive reputation.
{AN}This can also benefit the business directly, as motivated local employees may be more loyal, provide better customer service, and help the company achieve both social and business objectives simultaneously.

KN: It may allow the business to have local support.
APP: For example a fertilizer company like engro opens a new factory and hires local people and train them accordingly.
AN: This allows the business to reduce regional unemployment, gain local support, produce a much skilled labour as the local labour might be more efficient and motivated than labour from other areas. It also boosts labour loyalty leading to long term stability.

Knowledge Point:
A business can meet its social objectives by creating jobs for local people, as this helps reduce unemployment, supports families, and contributes to community development.

Application:
For example, Unilever, an international company, provides jobs to thousands of local workers in its factories around the world, including Pakistan. Similarly, Shan Foods, a Pakistani company, hires people from local areas for its manufacturing and packaging units, helping communities grow through stable employment.

Analysis:
By giving local people regular income, these businesses improve living standards and reduce poverty. As the community benefits, the company earns respect and trust from the public. This positive image builds customer loyalty and longterm support, helping the business achieve its social goals while continuing to succeed commercially.

(KN) Creating jobs helps reduce unemployment levels in a country.
(APP) For example, a textile manufacturing company employs many local people to sew clothes by hand to increase the amount of disposable income of each person.
(AN) This increase in disposable income means people's lifestyles improve, meaning they get motivated to work more, leading to higher efficiency, which plays a crucial role in increasing the GDP of a country, eventually leading to a better economy.
