Women skirting the edge of crisis …
A first for [Centre for Research on Education, Training and Employment’s] Cereq’s ‘Generation’ survey: at the end of 2008, results showed that the unemployment rate for young women had fallen below that for their male counterparts. Higher shares of young men have no qualifications and consequently are suffering more than women from the decline in the number of unskilled jobs. Nevertheless, women still tend to be employed in less stable, lower-paid jobs.
