Employment & Entrepreneurship

This chapter will focus on the involvement of young people in the labour market. Youth employment is part of the general employment policy. The Flemish government and the Federal government are both competent for employment policy within their own field of action. Initiatives to support youth employment are mainly taken at the Flemish level, while measures related to social security are often situated at the Federal level. This chapter illustrates the relevant initiatives and actors which support youth employment in Flanders.
