Abstract

The position of the young people on the Bulgarian labour market is presented in details, together with the possibilities for easy transfers to their first jobs. The stress is put on the increasing vulnerability of the youth employment in the period of recent crisis and on its specific problems in Bulgaria.

Some policy recommendations are articulated and also the arguments about the need of integrated approach implementation towards young people policies.
