WORK PLACEMENTS IN YOUTH EMPLOYMENT PROGRAMS: EXPERIENCES, CHANGE AND CONTINUITY IN THEIR IMPLEMENTATION

Abstract

Taking into account the framework of the growing implementation of policies and programs aimed at accompanying youth insertions in the labor market, some experiences are proposed with components that seek the articulation of the State and companies. With this in mind, the premises and plans are based on the revision of three (3) specific programs that have suggested this action strategy in Argentina: “Plan Joven” (1993-2000); “Jóvenes con Futuro” (2007-2010) and “Jóvenes con Más y Mejor Trabajo”-componente "Entrenamiento"- (2008-continue). The analysis is based on the revision of documentary information and interviews with the actors involved in its implementation. As a result of this, it can be shown that during more than twenty-five (25) years of the application of these practical programs and components there have been a considerable development not only in the conception and approach of youth employment issue, but also in the strategies used for its management. Notwithstanding, the results accomplished and the particular intervention on the problem have shown similar results
