Our Research

Future of Work

Since 2021, we have published a series of new research about the future of work for young people around the world. We are grateful to HSBC Holdings plc for supporting this research.

Our research has so far highlighted three core challenges facing young people:

  • A skills gap – young people say they are leaving education without the skills they need to thrive in the workplace.
  • An experience gap – young people tell us they lack the work experience necessary to secure employment.
  • A jobs gap – there are too few decent entry-level jobs for young people.

Our work with young people addresses these challenges:

  • Our Education programmes equip young people with the personal, social and employability skills they need for the modern workplace.
  • Over 70% of the young people who participate in our Employment and Enterprise programmes move into employment, self-employment, further training or volunteering.
  • We work with employer partners to support young people into secure, sustainable jobs.

2023 Overlooked and Underprepared

For this report, the third in a series, we surveyed almost 13,000 young people in ten different countries to discover their views on the future of work. We wanted to learn how they were being impacted by the after-effects of the Covid-19 pandemic and by large increases in prices.
