For nearly a decade Europe has been suffering from an economic crisis. Although some countries have started to recover, others haven’t. One of the areas that you can see it is the employment sector. Young people have continued to suffer as they are overqualified and underpaid. Older people have found themselves out of work after employers have age as a way to justify letting them go. Here are the some of the worst countries in Europe to try and make a living.
Greece
Greece is considered the birthplace of modern civilization and a popular holiday destination. Despite the booming tourist industry, the country is now in massive amounts of debt. When the world recession hit, Greece found itself with mass unemployment with under 25’s being hit the most. The Greek Government has repeatedly slashed the minimum wage for this group. The country has been the focus of the European Debt Crisis in the media. Protests and riots have happened across the country. People have attempted to highlight the government’s actions. As these riots and protests continue, tourism has declined. This has become a vicious circle. The country needs visitors to bring money into the country to create employment, but visitors won’t come while the country is in turmoil.
