Labour market transitions of young women and men in the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia

This report presents the highlights of the 2012 School-to-work Transition Survey (SWTS) run together with the State Statistical Office of the Republic of Macedonia within the framework of the ILO Work4Youth project. This project is a five-year partnership between the ILO and the MasterCard Foundation that aims to promote decent work opportunities for young men and women through knowledge and action. The W4Y publication series is designed to showcase analyses generated from the ILO administered in 28 countries covering five regions through the sponsorship of the project. The SWTS is a unique survey instrument that generates relevant labour market information on young people aged 15 to 29 years. The survey captures longitudinal information on transitions within the labour market, thus providing evidence of the increasingly tentative and indirect paths to decent and productive employment that today's young men and women face
