There are over one million 16-24 year olds not in education, employment or training. Commonly known as NEETs, this group in society is a strain on public finances and the taxpayer. Podcast host Duncan Barkes is joined by the TPA's Shimeon Lee and Georgiana Bristol, chief executive at the Jobs Foundation. Together they discuss the challenges of getting NEETs and others into work. They also look at what can be done to make it easier for UK businesses to offer jobs to those wanting to start their working life and whether it is too easy for some to claim that they are unable to work.
