Abstract	This booklet examines the problems encountered by youth while making the school-to-work transition and analyzes the measures undertaken in the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) member countries to deal with youth unemployment. Part I in an analysis of young people's difficulties in entering the working life describes the way in which the expansion of the education system has affected employment opportunities; examines available training options; discusses the search for a first job, including the links between school and work, and available guidance and information services; examines attitudes within the educational system and among employers; and concludes with proposals designed to reduce the imbalances which cause the problems. Part II examines youth unemployment in the wider context of employment in general and the effects of general measures taken against unemployment on young people. It analyzes fifteen measures taken against youth unemployment by OECD member countries which constitute six major approaches as follows: (1) providing employment at a regular workplace, (2) training for employment, (3) temporary reductions in the youth labor force, (4) job creation, (5) programs for disadvantaged youth, and (6) unemployment payments. Part III briefly discusses the problem of converging these short-term measures taken against youth unemployment and longer-term policies required by the structural situation. (EM)
