Abstract

Despite numerous policies intended to address the challenges that youth facing in the
labor market, Serbia still has high and tenacious rates of youth unemployment. The
economic crisis induced by Covid-19 pandemic has led to the decline in employment
activity, making it even harder for youth to enter labor market and obtain decent
employment. In order to provide insights into the issue of youth unemployment in
complex circumstances, this analyzes the factors that affect unemployment among
youth aged 15 to 29. Investigated factors included gender, rural/urban area of origin,
region, educational level and household material situation. For this purpose the micro-data of the Labor Force Survey (LFS) 2019 were used and the logistic regression
analysis was applied. The results confirm the impact of almost all investigated factors
on youth unemployment, except for that of region.
