Sažetak
The transition from education to work occurs at different points in time in different countries, depending on a range of educational and labour market characteristics. A purely micro-level approach to youth transitions would readily acknowledge the importance of contextual factors at the macro level. Individual expectations and actions are always affected by particular macro-level opportunity structures, mainly defined by the jobs available in particular occupations, industries, or regions for young people with particular qualifications and other resources. This article gives a macro-level approach of the transition process from school to the world of work in the EU and OECD countries. The paper puts two main research questions: first, are there school-to-work transitions differences according to educational level, race and sex, and second, whether the level of education affects the duration of spells of unemployment and employment? Considering the two main research questions placed in this paper the results indicates that the school-to-work transition speed differs across selected group of countries by education level, race and sex. In seven of the ten European countries, the average search period for the first regular employment after graduation lasted for only 3 to 6 months and about 5% of those had been unemployed most of the time. The analysis shows that Spain, Italy and France consistently performed worst considering the length of the transition process from school-to-work.
