Young people, who have just left the education system are encountering the labor market for the fist time that allows them independence, more serious planning of the future, and that does not apply to student jobs that are often not related to the study they attend. At that point they usually face friction or temporary unemployment. Education should be a stepping stone to entering the world of work and finding a job, but thins does not have to be a rule due to mismatch between job supply and labor demand, or precisely because of recent global pandemic that has discompose the already wobble labour market. Structural changes are introduces through various measures and incentives, which are imported from the European union to provide employment for young people in any member state. In addition to economic aims, increasing priority and importance is given to social policy, which includes policies of employment, combating social exclusion, poverty or similar. Among the documents, The Youth Guarantee, Young and creative, Youth in Action and the European Pillar of Social Rights stand out as the main path, among others which are discussed more detail in this paper. These documents does not guarantee youth employment but serve as measures to increase the employability and competences of youth, but also as guidelines to employment services and employers. Given the distinction between the market and the economy, each member state personalizes the measures according to the instructions in the documents and according to its capabilities, some examples are given in this paper.
