A large number of young people can not find a job after leaving shool. what problems will youth unemployment cause for individuals and society? what measures should be taken to reduce the level of unemployment among young people?
The world is in for a worsening youth unemployment, with its causes resembling their consequences. It goes without saying that youth unemployment needs to be tackled urgently, but this important task is anything but easy. However, if the microeconomic theory is of any use at all, it must include explanations, but also solutions to such problems as are affecting school leavers as individuals and society as the labor market.
In a time of the economic recession, there is always a high jobless rate among young people, compared to the overall unemployment rate. This may explain in part why a large number of young people who are leaving school find it difficult to get a job. Particularly, youth unemployment spells a variety of hardships in a society that is powerless to create jobs. As unemployment balloons, competition among young individuals for jobs also rises, hence further pushing the society in general to tighten its belt, among other unpopular measures. Being part of a vicious economic cycle , massive unemployment carries an emotional toll, often too complex to define and too heavy a burden for the so-called scarred generation to bear with hope and dignity. In view of this situation, if little or nothing could be done soon enough to reduce the unemployment level, the societys law and order would be at risk, referring, as an example, to a link between youth unemployment and youth crime.
Unfortunately, ways to create jobs for young people seem to be mostly slow and often ineffective, and worse still, widely divided as an economic issue. For instance, some governments decide to take austerity measures, contrary to the argument that to cut public spending in the presence of high unemployment would be to ignore the lessons of history that are specifically not in favor of young people looking for jobs. At another point, the expectation that private employers would be able to hire enough to bring youth unemployment down remains only an expectation and not a cure-all for graduate unemployment. Neither is entrepreneurship a promising option for graduate employment because the precarious character of working for oneself does not suit everybody. On the other hand, not every school leaver acquires sufficient skills needed for the labor market, which implies that part of the long-term pro-job campaign should begin at school in the first place. Further, the supply and demand of jobs for young people are apparently out of steps, as seen in some societies that face a lack of personnel in technology and natural sciences, but have a surplus of students in human and social sciences.
All in all, those are challenges for individuals and the society as a whole in the light of the current economic recession in which young graduates are being severely affected. Accordingly, efforts from all sectors should lead to the assurance that the next decade would be one of growth and not of high unemployment. Here are the problems, and it seems that the last thing to do is to embrace natures cure and wait them out.
