The Sidama national regional state job, skill and enterprises development Bureau was established as an office in 2014 E.C and has been providing services to the region with three main sectors: vocational training and enterprises development sector, job creation sector and labour development sector.

The Labour and Workforce Development sector is responsible for issues related to employment, labour market information, industrial relations, and occupational safety and health. Performs activities to strengthen bilateral relations between employer and employees as well as tripartite relations between employer, employee and government. In private sector bureau oversees the implementation of policies and legal frameworks to guide employer-labor relations.

Technical and vocational education and training is part of an education system that aims to produce young people with skills, good attitudes and knowledge for a country. Developing countries, including Ethiopia, use TVET as a major tool for economic growth and reducing unemployment. The vocational training and enterprises development sector at the office establishes, expands, supports and manages basic junior and mid-level technical and vocational training institutions to assist its industrial and investment activities in the region.

The job creation sector will provide training support, workspace, loans, market linkage advice and other support to the region's job seekers, especially youth and women, to engage more broadly in entrepreneurship.
