The Prince’s Trust has published a report which reveals that young people from workless families are significantly more likely to struggle to find a job themselves, as well as feeling far less confident about their future.
According to the report, based on interviews with 2,048 16-to-24-year-olds, one in five say that seeing their parents out of work has made them anxious about finding a job. One in four feel their parents don’t have the knowledge to help them find employment, while almost one in ten haven’t even thought about what career they want.
The report is available to download from the Prince’s Trust website.
