Rejected petition Protect Youth Jobs from Automation – Invest in Training and Opportunity
Automation is replacing entry-level jobs, leaving young people without vital work opportunities. We call on the Government to guarantee youth employment, support businesses that hire people, and fund community-led upskilling programmes.
More details
Automation is replacing entry-level jobs once filled by young people. Self-checkouts and warehouse robots are removing vital early work opportunities, leaving many youth unemployed and without skills. We urge the Government to guarantee youth employment, support businesses that hire people, and fund community-led training to secure the next generation’s future.
Supported by community groups helping unemployed youth. The UK must not automate away a generation’s opportunity to work.
