Youth Employment Programme
Drivers of youth employment outcomes
Long-term factors affecting youth labour markets
include:
• Size of the youth cohort
• Individual characteristics (e.g. age, gender)
• Education and training outcomes
• labour market institutions
• Level of aggregate demand and employment
intensity of growth
Youth Employment Programme
Youth employment and the supply side
• Young people: the most educated generation ever
• The higher the education and training, the higher
the youth employment outcomes (see graph)
• Addressing skills mismatches and lack of work
experience alone unlikely to improve youth labour
market outcomes
• Supply-side measures take the lion share of youth
employment strategies and labour market policies

Youth Employment Programme
Youth employment and labour market institutions
• Reforms of provisions concerning recruitment and
dismissal (EPL) have not improved youth employment
outcomes in the long term
• Segmentation based on differing levels of protection
(temporary vs. permanent) for EPL reforms at the
margin
• Inconclusive evidence of impact of minimum wage
on youth employment
• In some countries, rebates in non-wage labour costs
improved youth employment outcomes when labour
costs too high
Youth Employment Programme
Youth employment and the demand side
• Lack of labour demand is a binding constraint to
youth employment
• Pace, volatility and pattern of growth play a
significant role in explaining youth employment
outcomes
• Private fixed capital formation can increase youth
employment outcomes
• Public investment in infrastructure and social
protection can multiply employment opportunities
Youth Employment Programme
Demand-side policies and youth employment
• Integrated policies with twin objective of growth
and job creation
• Counter-cyclical measures to reduce volatility and
sustain jobs
• Measures to loosen constraint to private sector
growth (e.g. finance and infrastructure)
• Youth-friendly fiscal policies, particularly to support
targeted demand-side interventions
Youth Employment Programme11
A balanced policy framework
to promote youth employment
Entrepreneurship as career options
Education and training to enhance employability and facilitate school to work transition
Pro-employment macro-

Concluding remarks
• Integrated strategies for growth and job creation to
ensure long-term, sustained and concerted action
on youth employment
• A balanced approach to address demand- and
supply-side factors, as well as quantity and quality
of youth employment
• Youth-friendly fiscal policies to implement activation
policies that combine both active and passive

related to self-employment, personal direct taxes and other employment-related obligations. 25. (...) At the aggregate level, the main situations may be regrouped into broad categories relevant to the measurement of employment-related well-being, such as: — full-year/full-time employment;
— part-year/part-time employment with no unemployment: • for voluntary reasons; • for involuntary reasons;

This has created a need to adapt statistical concepts and measurement strategies to better capture the growing diversity of forms of employment.
1.2 In 2020, the Bureau of the Conference of European Statisticians completed an In-Depth Review on New Forms of Employment and Quality of Employment to assess current challenges around measuring various forms of employment. (...) These supplementary concepts, which include notions such as non-standard employment, quality of employment, atypical employment and gig work, among others, have made substantive contributions to the understanding of the various ways in which employment is organized and carried out around the world.
1.5 Yet, these terms occasionally overlap and are not integrated as part of a coherent framework, leading to possible confusion about the precise nature and characteristics of various employment-related phenomena. (...) For example, most countries establish a distinction between paid employment carried out for an employer and employment conducted for profit.
