Young people to be forced into work under Reeves plan to tackle unemployment
"From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging."
"Young people who have been out of work for 18 months will be given jobs under new plans to tackle unemployment, Rachel Reeves will announce. The chancellor is set to use her speech at the Labour party conference to unveil a youth guarantee, meaning every young person who has received universal credit (UC) benefits for 18 months without earning or learning will be offered paid work, an apprenticeship or a place at college."
The Independent emphasizes on-the-ground reporting across issues including reproductive rights, climate change and Big Tech, and appeals for donations to keep reporting freely accessible without paywalls. The outlet highlights investigations and documentaries aimed at clarifying facts from messaging and stresses trust across the political spectrum. The chancellor will unveil a youth guarantee at the Labour party conference to offer paid work, apprenticeships or college places to young people on universal credit for 18 months. Claimants who refuse offers without reasonable excuse may face sanctions. The guarantee is presented as part of a pledge to abolish long-term youth unemployment while budget and tax debates continue.
