“…Experience confirmed that employees participating in outplacement can find a new job faster [81,82]. From this point of view, the most vulnerable group is just young employees [90], which can be a serious social problem, especially for young people who have never been employed [91].…”

Work and employment are important elements of every working person's life. If an employee loses his or her job, he or she loses an important and determining part of his or her life. To reduce the negative effects that affect the quality of an employee's life, outplacement programs were established as a part of sustainable human resource management. Sustainable human resource management emphasises the importance of employee care. Outplacement, for its part, includes support for employees at their last stage in the organization. The main aims of the paper are to present the research results focused on the perceived usefulness of outplacement programs for dismissed employees, to analyse the relationships between the emotions felt by redundancies and other employees as well as the comparison of differences in emotions felt by different generations of dismissed employees. A valid collection tool (research questionnaire) was developed for research purposes and distributed to employees of industrial enterprises in the Slovak Republic. Overall, the research set was composed of n = 692 employees from different generational groups. The research results proved the existence of a relationships between the emotions felt by redundancies and other employees and differences in emotions felt by employees from different generational groups.Sustainability 2019, 11, 4748 2 of 21 knowledge about the environmental, social, and economic strengths and weaknesses of enterprise for managers [2,3] for supporting decision-making [4][5][6]. The need for corporate social responsibility has become more pronounced in recent years, and companies have committed themselves to promoting non-economic social values [7]. The importance of corporate social responsibility on enterprise performance can be confirmed [8][9][10][11][12] with emphasis on the fact that the enterprise is confronted not only with economic problems but increasingly also with environmental and social ones [13][14][15][16][17]. Executives understand that corporate social responsibility is beneficial for businesses in relation to employees, whether present or attracting future ones [18,19]. There are various opportunities for enterprises to engage and contribute to local communities. Some enterprises, therefore, have separate units that manage their social commitment [20,21]. Social corporate responsibility does not mean only to focus in the broader sense on work issues. What is also important is commitment to social responsibility at a local level. It can be demonstrated as commitment to employees, currently as well as ex-employees, prospective employees and surrounding communities.The enterprise itself benefits from the implementation of socially responsible initiatives. Corporate social responsibility activities influence not only how the employees are identified with the enterprise, but also their attitudes and behaviour [22] and thus performance.Employees view favourable or unfavourable treatment from the enterprise management as an expression of how management of the enterpri...

“…This occurs both in the case of those who find employment, because it is a job of poor quality, and in the case that they do not find it, because they could fall into discouragement. In this sense, the academic literature points out that the incidence of the number of NEETs is related to the socio-economic environment [5,7] and also with the situation of social vulnerability [16][17][18], mainly represented through the risk of poverty and social exclusion. Hence, the importance of analyzing the vulnerability of young people in their access to the labor market, considering the socio-economic environment in which they have developed, is identified.…”

“…Additionally, it is worth highlighting that this problem goes beyond a specific group to become a social problem that has an important projection in the future [2], since the probability of finding a permanent job for those young people who previously were in the NEET position is lower and they assume a higher risk of precarious employment and other social issues, which even could come to a lack of trust in social institutions [18]. In all the countries of the European Union, the NEETs register high unemployment rates, and many of them, when finishing the basic or compulsory education, do not continue studying either.…”

“…In all the countries of the European Union, the NEETs register high unemployment rates, and many of them, when finishing the basic or compulsory education, do not continue studying either. This inactivity leads to a delay in emancipation, family dependence, lack of integration in society, and can lead to psychological problems, with the ultimate effect of a process of social exclusion [18]. It is like a wound that will heal, but, perhaps, accompany them throughout life.…”

“…The European Union considers youth to be those aged between 15-24 years, but for analyzing NEETs, EUROSTAT provide data for those aged from 15 to 29 years. In this paper, we take all these range of age [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29], due to the relevance for the last stretch of ages. The economic environment latent variable (ξ 1 ) was constructed with the aim of collecting information about different spheres of the economy: One related to the general economic position of the country, the other to consumers' purchasing capability and another about the public policies that exist to support citizens.…”

Sustainable Development, Poverty, and Risk of Exclusion for Young People in the European Union: The Case of NEETs

2018

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The difficulties of access to the labor market remains in the post-crisis period, particularly for younger people and for those countries more affected by the crisis. The economic conditions with the precariousness of the labor market and higher unemployment taxes for youth, draws a scenario where the risk of poverty and social exclusion could influence young people and discourage them from social and economic participation, and thus the number of young people not in employment, education, or training (NEETs) will increase. The sustainable development in general and the social sustainability in particular needs to solve this important issue to get a balanced and fair social and economic scenario. In this work, the influence of socio economic variables related to the level of prosperity of the country and social protection as well as the risk of poverty and social exclusion on young NEETs is evaluated based on the EUROSTAT data for the year, 2016, for young people. The method was a structural equations model and the results confirm that the key important factors for explaining the situation of the NEETs' are more related to poverty and exclusion than to the economic environment. The main conclusion from these results is the importance of implementing some inclusive actions to prevent an increase in the number of young NEETs, and boosting, in this way, a more balanced and sustainable society.

The article discusses the importance of the problem of human capital formation. Human capital is a multifaceted concept that gives the greatest return in a modern economy. It is measurable. Since 1990, the World Bank has published annual reports on its dynamics, having developed a special index called the Human Development Index. In 1990, when the index was measured for the first time, the Russian Federation was in 49th place in the ranking, but subsequently dropped to 65. Last year we were able to move up to 41st place. The authors trace the dynamics of government investment in human capital and the final result, which is reflected in places in the world ranking. In the nineties of the twentieth century, the Russian Federation was in a deep crisis, investments in human capital were negative, so the place in the HDI rating dropped. Currently, a number of government programs aimed at the development of human capital are being implemented, and they are paying off.
