Sažetak
Employment has been identified at the top of the list of young
people’s concerns across Europe. Given the fact that in Bosnia and
Herzegovina youth is one of the most vulnerable group, mainly
due to the high unemployment rate, the main goal of this paper
to determine the key individual and household characteristics of
young people that influence their employment probability in order
to support further development of decision-making policies in the
labour market of Bosnia and Herzegovina. By using the USAID
MEASURE-BiH National Youth Survey data set we analyse the
effects of various individual and household characteristics on the
probability of youth employment in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The
analysis has revealed that education, age, gender and certain
household characteristics have an impact on the probability of
youth employment. The paper is expected to produce useful
pieces of information that might be helpful for government decision-
makers in Bosnia and Herzegovina in the process of creating
employment policies to support young people.
