Abstract

This paper uses unit record data from the 1985 Australian Longitudinal Survey to review the major features of the youth labor market. Education plays an important role in determining the incidence of unemployment, wages, hours of work, and access to training opportunities. The probability of leaving unemployment falls off substantially as the duration of the unemployment spell increases. Longer-term unemployed appear to be segmented from other labor-market participants. Copyright 1987 by The Economic Society of Australia.
