Abstract:
The last economic-financial crisis affected seriously labour force employment, young individuals being more vulnerable to the effects of the unstable economic cycles on the labour force market. With respect to unemployment, youths are most vulnerable because they have less experience and the majority of temporary work contracts. The labour force market is also more competitive during times of crisis, meaning that there are more applicants for fewer jobs. The paper presents a brief analysis of the development for some indicators on the labour market for the age segment 15 to 24 years and 25 to 64 years of age at European and national level.
