Abstract

In 1980 the unemployment rate (on standardised OECD definitions) for under-25 year-olds was 14 per cent in the United Kingdom, 15 per cent in France and 4 per cent in Germany. This year it is expected by OECD that these rates will be 21 per cent in this country, 31 per cent in France and 9 per cent in Germany. In all three countries special measures have been introduced in an attempt to reverse the trend. In this note we outline the circumstances in which this rapid increase in youth unemployment has occurred and then describe the measures taken in each country to combat it.
