  • Trapped or Flexible? Risk transitions and missing policies for young high-skilled workers in Europe

    Synthesis report

    Orlando N, Samek M, Pesce F, Hadjivassilio K, Higgins T, Rickard C, | Feb 2012 | European Commission

    Young people are far more likely than other groups to be employed in non standard and insecure jobs, independently from their education and skills. Recent changes in the macroeconomic context; the ongoing economic crisis, as well as labour market reforms enhancing flexibility have increased the uncertainty in the labour market for young people, as indicated by the increase in youth unemployment, inactivity and precarious jobs. This project, funded as a pilot project by the European Commission and completed in 2011, provided a detailed examination of the labour market condition of young people with tertiary-level qualifications (ISCED level equal to or greater than 5), who had experienced deskilling and unemployment in recent years. In order to better understand how and to what extent young highly skilled workers in Europe were experiencing job insecurity, the project provided an overview on the European labour market conditions, with a specific focus on Spain, Italy and the UK.
