Introduction

The Covid-19 pandemic has caused a severe job crisis in many countries. The job crisis will continue, and this will cause a high rate of poverty and inequalities. Therefore there is a need for many countries to find ways of stopping job crisis before it becomes a social crisis. With the unexpected increase in unemployment, the governments need to come with unemployment benefits to help unemployed

Overview

Due to Covid-19 pandemic, the government created restrictions, closed all national borders, and banned public gatherings. Retail stores and other non-essential stores that involved a large group of people were closed. Due to this, many people who worked in such places became jobless.

Purpose of the study

The study finds the impact of the pandemic on jobs to be systematic, profound, and disproportionate. Young women, younger youth, and youth in low-income nations have been hit particularly hard. Young people are worried about the future and how they will fit into it. This study is their story.
