Not in Education, Employment or Training (NEET)

The acronym NEET is a term first used in the UK to describe young people currently not in education, employment or training. It comprises of people aged between 16 and 24.

According to the UK Office for National Statistics:

For January to March 2016:

There were 865,000 young people (aged 16 to 24) in the UK who were not in education, employment or training (NEET), an increase of 2,000 from October to December 2015 and down 69,000 from a year earlier.

The percentage of all young people in the UK who were NEET was 12.0%, up 0.1 percentage points from October to December 2015 and down 0.8 percentage points from a year earlier.

Under half (44%) of all young people in the UK who were NEET were looking for work and available for work and therefore classified as unemployed. The remainder were either not looking for work and/or not available for work and therefore classified as economically inactive.
