Abstract

Youth unemployment is one of the major issues for governments and international institutions in worldwide. Young people are almost three times more likely than adults to be unemployed globally. Youth unemployment is a substantial problem in Turkey as the rate of youth unemployment in the country is much more than the world average. Apparently, the high proportion of youth who are neither in employment nor in education or training is a significant issue in Turkey. The aim of this study is to give information about the recent global labour market trends concerning youth and enlighten the structure of youth employment and the characteristics of youth unemployment in Turkey. This study also proffers suggestions to policy makers concerning the issue in Turkey.
