Gendered impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the proportion of youth neither in employment nor education at the start of the school year / by Katherine Wall.CS75-006/2021-3E-PDF

"This article examines the period of September to October 2020, which signalled the beginning of new school year and also the start of the second wave of COVID‑19 in Canada. It illuminates the decisions that youth (and, in the case of secondary students, their parents) made about their schooling, and how the combination of these possibly difficult decisions, with the unprecedented drops in youth employment, affected the proportion of youth who were not in employment, education or training (NEET). Knowing and understanding patterns in the youth NEET rate during the pandemic, particularly in light of possible physical re‑entry into schools, can shed light on the possible long term economic and social wellbeing implications for this generation for years to come"--Introduction, page 2.
