Understanding NEETs. Individual and institutional determinants of youth inactivity in France, Germany, Japan, the Netherlands and the UK
Lead Research Organisation:
University of Oxford
Department Name: Education
Abstract
In 2012, no less than 15% of young people aged 15-29 in OECD countries were Not in Employment, Education or Training (so-called "NEETs"). The NEET rate varies markedly between countries. NEETs are an essential problem for European countries.Early-career inactivity turns NEETs into the most likely candidates for long-term socioeconomic marginalization, criminal careers, unwanted pregnancies, and grave mental and physical health problems. Total yearly costs associated with European NEETs surpassed Euros 153 billion in 2011.
Despite this societal urgency, our theoretical understanding of NEETs is still limited. We know too little about whether NEET is a transitory or long-lasting period, about differences in the timing (age) of becoming NEET (15-19, 20-24, and 25-29), and about the heterogeneity of the NEET population. The role of institutional contexts is also still ill-understood.
This project investigates the patterns, causes and consequences of NEET to reveal and understand country similarities and differences. The goal is to provide new theoretical and empirical insights on the temporal patterns of NEET, the impact of individual and institutional characteristics and the interplay between institutions and individual characteristics on young people's transitions into and out of NEET. Our three research questions are:
(1) What are the patterns of NEET? Is NEET long-lasting or just a transitory stage in school-to-work transitions?
(2) What are the causes of NEET? To what extent can (a) individual characteristics, (b) countries' institutions and policies, and (c) their interactions explain the probability that young people 15-29 make transitions into and out of NEET periods?
(3) What are the consequences of being NEET?
To answer these questions, we will undertake an integrated research program that supplements in-depth longitudinal analyses of five country cases (i.e., Germany, France, Japan, the Netherlands, and the UK) with robust cross-national analyses of 24 advanced economies. The country studies enable us to reveal the extent to which specific labour market conditions, educational institutions and policies generate different trajectories into and out of NEET, and understand the relevance of individual and family backgrounds for these trajectories in these institutional contexts. Additional cross-national analyses serve to examine the generalizability of findings from the country studies.
The proposed international project aims to overcome these critical issues with the following innovations:
a) We will advance common theoretical explanations that are adequate for explaining YUP, but which currently fail to explain (certain types) of NEETs.
b) We will use data that allows us to distinguish different NEET categories and/or NEET age groups, and conduct analyses on various assumptions behind the NEET concept.
c) We will analyse NEET as a dynamic process and not a single event, using longitudinal studies and sequence analyses.
d) We will study the interplay of individual and institutional factors, which might affect the incidence and the age-specific risks of NEET periods, as well as the probabilities of short- and long-term durations of NEET-status.

Planned Impact
At a European level the EU has labelled the need to focus research attention towards NEETs 'central to the European policy debate'. The EC even declared that reducing the 'astonishingly' high number of NEETs is crucial for EU societies. By better understanding the causes of NEET, the segmentation which exists within the group and the trajectories into and out of NEET, policy initiatives can be tailored to facilitate the prevention of NEET status and the (re)integration of specific subgroups of NEETs into the labour market.
At UK level, all four UK national governments see NEETs as a major social and economic challenge, and as a focus for a wide range of policy interventions (for example, in Scotland around the Developing Scotland's Young Workforce Implementation Plan and in Wales, the Youth Engagement and Progression Framework). Moreover, the study will be of direct relevance to achieving one of ESRC's key areas of activity ('Facilitating partnerships and realising impact') within its strategic plan , given the composition of the research team and the potential impact of the findings on shaping future policy intervention on youth employment/unemployment at national, European and international levels.
By targeting policy-makers from national governments and other actors, the EC and the OECD, the analysis, new understandings and suggestions for policy innovation generated by this project will aid in reducing the tremendous economic and societal costs associated with NEETs.

A Spotlight on young women who are defined as NEET and economically inactive
in Cuadernos de Investigación en Juventud
Description | Despite record levels of employment, the problem of young people who are Not in Education, Employment or Training (NEET) persists. Our research provides new knowledge and key explanatory findings on this problem. First, the definition of NEET has been extended from 16-to-18-year-olds to embrace a wider age group - up to the age of 35 in some countries. There are structural reasons for this and our data analyses identified a major compositional change in UK NEETs. On the one hand, coinciding with a reduction in the number of NEETs during the 1990s was a marked decline in those with low or no qualifications - a group historically at high risk of being NEET. Simultaneously, restructuring of the youth labour market and entry points into it for have meant employment access being via contingent and precarious routes (e.g. agency work, work trials, internships, and zero hours positions). Thus, transitions from learning to earning are, as in many other developed countries, have become more fragmented, lengthy, complex and uncertain and the risks of NEET episodes are consequently affecting a diverse group of young people into their late '20s. Data analysis shows two problematic groupings who experience NEET-hood between ages 16 to 26: trajectories which consist of NEET 'cyclers' and long-term NEETs. These two categories comprise one third of the youth population who experienced at least a month being NEET between 2010 and 2016. Among the N/EET churning group, many more find themselves in precarious employment. At the same time, the NEET group has increasingly comprised young people who exhibit a greater detachment from the labour market, as they are reported to be economically inactive i.e. those who are not seeking work due to illness or caring responsibilities. Second, our findings from examining the risk of becoming NEET point to a much greater likelihood according to disadvantages by family background, in particular having parents who were out of work during a person's adolescence. A third key achievement has been to demonstrate that any NEET episode substantially reduces young people's feelings of having reached maturity. Among those who have ever been NEET, their perceived sense of maturity is lowered regardless of present situation (financial or job wise). Thus NEET episodes may build pervasive, cumulative disadvantages into young peoples' lives, which suggests a focus for interventions among younger cohorts aimed at preventing NEET entry. In terms of policy analysis, we found substantial variation in strategy, policy and programmes between the four UK nations in their approaches, with independent and variable levels of intervention and types of initiatives to support young people in the NEET group. There is no 'UK-wide approach' to tackling the NEET agenda and the 'scale of difference' between the four UK nations in their support for the NEET agenda was a key new finding. Additionally, the research exposed over-reliance on EU-funding to support NEET initiatives particularly in the devolved administrations. Moreover, there was no evidence of a post-Brexit strategy to support the NEET group. |
Exploitation Route | Some of the findings are already being further researched by the large ESRC project at KCL that is looking at the learning and career trajectories of school and college students those not destined for HE entry. Keep (PI for the ORA NEET project) is on the KCL project advisory board. Our research has pointed to the need for governments and the agencies (public and third sector) that deliver interventions across the four UK nations to review both their collection of NEET data and the focus of their policies. Further thought about how best to track the NEET population (at national and local levels) and how best to fashion interventions that can prevent young people becoming NEET are now needed. So too is some action research around interventions to support/help those who are economically inactive to regain contact with the labour market and education and training opportunities. |

Description | The case study research conducted with policy makers in all four UK nations and the dissemination events (in each country and the UK-wide end-of-award conference) have catalyzed and engendered collaborative links between policymakers across UK governments. For example, Careers Service leads in Wales and Scotland have conducted respective visits to share good practice and knowledge exchange (2019). A Director at Skills Development Scotland (SDS) has developed strategic links with colleagues at the Department of Education (England) and the Welsh Government (2019). The findings have also prompted and enabled policy makers to re-focus some of their thinking towards the older NEET population, who hitherto have not been a strong focus for policy concern. Traditionally, NEET policy has tended to see this as a problem for 16-19 year olds, but our data has demonstrated the need for more attention to be directed at those above this age, not least at the post-24 group. In this respect the project has helped re-align UK policy with analysis and practice elsewhere in Europe/the developed world, where the NEET category has extended to mirror extended transitions into sustainable employment. The project's findings have prompted policy makers to re-examine the design of their interventions in respect of gender as male and female NEETs face very different challenges and therefore require tailored policy interventions and support to successfully re-engage with the labour market or education and training system. The findings and analysis have also been useful to policy makers and bodies that provide interventions (including third sector and charities) in helping them to see and draw a distinction between NEETs who are unemployed and those who are economically inactive (i.e. not seeking work) and for whom a different benefit regime exists. Falling youth unemployment rates in the UK have served to both diminish the importance of the NEET agenda and to mask the reality that, currently, over 60% of the NEET group comprises young people who are defined as economically inactive (EI). The NEET EI group typically requires very different types of support, due to the large volume of young people within it who face lone parenthood (mostly female) or long-term health conditions (dominated by mental health conditions). They are also often long-term welfare-dependent and are both harder to reach and harder to help, in comparison to young people who are NEET and 'work-ready'. A significant proportion of our discussions with policy makers has been focused on thinking through pathways to help the NEET EI population. Overall, the case study evidence on interventions to support young people in the NEET group have been used by policymakers across the four UK nations to compare and contrast their approaches and, crucially, to help address the key challenge of identifying 'what works best, where and for whom'. The research has supported an evidence-based approach to policymaking. |
