Nearly 1 in 10 young individuals is a ‘Neet’

The percentage of ‘Neets’ (neither in employment nor in education and training) among individuals aged 15 to 29 years old in Luxembourg was 8.8% in 2021, according to the latest data from Eurostat. This indicates that almost one in ten individuals in this age group was not engaged in any form of education, employment or training.
