青年失業問題是目前世界各國所關心的主要議題之一，從1970年代開始先進國家已開始意識到青年失業問題的嚴重性。根據國際勞工組織估計，目前世界上至少有7,100萬青年處於沒有工作的狀態，全球的青年失業率在2007年高達11.9%。而台灣的整體失業率與青年失業率從1996年開始攀升，2009年2月的青年失業率已高達14.56%，創歷年最高，且青年為各年齡組群中失業率最高的一群，若青年失業問題持續惡化，勢必對社會造成不良的影響，增加社會成本。 面對越來越嚴重的青年失業問題，國際組織與先進各國均提出許多建議或政策來因應，本研究將探討國際組織ILO與OECD對青年就業政策之觀點，並以德國、英國、美國、香港、丹麥與荷蘭為例，借鏡其青年就業政策，以掌握世界主要工業國家之趨勢與對策。 台灣近年來隨著失業問題越來越嚴重，雖然政府開始注意到青年的失業問題，並已初步實施多面項的方案，但經由本研究分析與國際發展趨勢相較，發現目前台灣的青年就業政策還是有許多仍待補強之處。最後本研究將以國際的經驗當作借鏡，提出以下七點相關建議，以作為未來相關政策參考之方向： 一、應重視技職教育的發展，擴大投資技職教育。 二、提升正式教育過程中的就業力養成教育，並增加青年體驗職場的機會。 三、加強職業指導，培養正確的就業價值觀。 四、積極的消極勞動市場政策。 五、提供青年個人化的深度就業諮詢輔導服務，多關注弱勢青年。 六、建立職業訓練評估制度，完善規劃訓練課程以符合市場需求。 七、整合相關部會，制訂一套完整、長期性、針對性的青年就業促進方案。 / Nowadays the problem of youth unemployment is one of main topics that every countries concern.
