Supplementary Survey to the Labour Force Survey 2009 - Transition from Education to Work for Persons Aged 15-34

The European program of supplementary surveys in the AKU for 2007-09 includes a module on young people's path into the labor market. A working group consisting of experts from Great Britain, Sweden, Austria, Hungary, Italy, France and Spain has worked out which questions should be asked. The EU and the EEA countries have a stated goal of reducing unemployment among young people. The supplementary survey helps to map young people aged 15-34's path from education to the labor market and will thus be able to provide a description of the labor market situation for young people in addition to highlighting possible areas for improvement.
