Book excerpt: Youth unemployment is a growing concern. Youth are in a critical stage in their lives where they are transitioning from school to work. For youth that are not able to find employment soon after high school, it may have detrimental impacts on future employment. Youth unemployment can be a slippery slope of personal and financial struggles. Several variables, such as human and social capital impact the ability for youth to find employment. The paper will examine social capital and human capital as two major contributors to youth unemployment. Social capital refers to social relationships. Social relationships are an important resource of employment. Social capital was identified as a strong indicator of employment due to the necessity of social skills required to find and retain employment. Human capital is another strong indicator of youth unemployment. Human capital is identified as qualifications, skills, and knowledge. Policy has been enacted to address various components that are linked to youth unemployment. U.S. policy has implemented academic policy aimed to provide job skills for youth exiting high school; economic incentives have been utilized to encourage the hiring of unemployed youth. The paper will analyze policy implemented by the U.S. and other countries used to address the concerns with youth unemployment.

Book excerpt: Increasingly high unemployment has brought with it a multitude of consequences affecting those without jobs and, beyond them, their families, friends and communities. This book reports findings from original research. It explores, often in the words of the unemployed and others involved, what life without a job is like. It challenges many widely held beliefs about the unemployed - that they are workshy, price themselves out of jobs or earn money illegally on the side - and explores where such misconceptions come from. It reveals the inherent contradictions involved in trying to search for work whilst coping with the experience of unemployment.

This book was released on 1998-12-18 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Massachusetts, a 12-year-old girl delivering newspapers is killed when a car strikes her bicycle. In Los Angeles, a 14-year-old boy repeatedly falls asleep in class, exhausted from his evening job. Although children and adolescents may benefit from working, there may also be negative social effects and sometimes danger in their jobs. Protecting Youth at Work looks at what is known about work done by children and adolescents and the effects of that work on their physical and emotional health and social functioning. The committee recommends specific initiatives for legislators, regulators, researchers, and employers. This book provides historical perspective on working children and adolescents in America and explores the framework of child labor laws that govern that work. The committee presents a wide range of data and analysis on the scope of youth employment, factors that put children and adolescents at risk in the workplace, and the positive and negative effects of employment, including data on educational attainment and lifestyle choices. Protecting Youth at Work also includes discussions of special issues for minority and disadvantaged youth, young workers in agriculture, and children who work in family-owned businesses.
