Abstract
The onset of the health crisis has found the young people's labour market still fragile after the economic and financial crisis triggered in 2008-2009. At country level, the unemployment rate among young people aged 15-24 years has seen significant variations as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, reaching 23.7% in the 4th quarter of 2021. As the pandemic has spread, the prevalence of the NEET status, inactivity in the labour market and informal work among young people have increased even more than unemployment among them. The economic and social consequences of the Covid-19 pandemic have been and still are significant for young people. The health crisis has been particularly serious for young people, causing disruptions in their education, training and on-the-job learning, but also the loss of jobs and incomes, increasing the difficulties for young people looking for a job. Purpose: Analysis and synthesis of the main existing vulnerabilities on the youth labour market, their manifestation in the development regions of Romania under the conditions of the Covid-19 pandemic. Method: Descriptive statistical analysis was used in particular for visualizing and synthesizing the information derived from the regional labour market data. The classification analysis was used to define a typology of vulnerabilities on the youth labour market, and the factor analysis to create indicators of the vulnerability of their employment. Results: creation of a synthesis of the main vulnerabilities encountered on the youth labour market at the level of the development regions of Romania.
