Sammendrag
Young unemployed and single mothers are natural target groups for labour market policy
interventions. At young age, people are particularly prone to unemployment. Figure 1 depicts
unemployment rates for the OECD countries and the US by age groups. As the figure shows,
people aged 15-24 years are about twice as likely to be unemployed compared to people aged 25-
54 years.
