The UK government, led by Work and Pensions Secretary Liz Kendall, is set to introduce a ‘Youth Guarantee’ program aimed at helping 18 to 21-year-olds engage in education or employment. Young people who refuse offers of training or work will risk losing their benefits. The initiative aims to combat rising economic inactivity and improve job prospects for the youth. Prime Minister Keir Starmer has also emphasized the need to address benefit fraud. The overall goal is to revamp the welfare system and tackle the challenges affecting young people’s future.
