Young people and decent work – Jonas Masdonati (University of Lausanne – Switzerland)

School to work transitions should have as an end goal to achieve a decent job. Decent jobs depend on multiple institutional and social arrangements as well as on key individual factors. However, the definition of decent work seems to still overfocus on job conditions such as income. On the other hand, for younger generations, especially those from marginalized groups, decent jobs are hard to reach. What is decent work? What are the new layers of this concept? And how do major shifts in contemporary societies, based on the twin transition, influence young people’s prospects of finding a decent job? This and more on this episode.
