Young Person's Guarantee
What is the Young Person's Guarantee?
The Young Person's Guarantee is a commitment to connect every 16 to 24 year old in Scotland to an opportunity. As employers and partners, you play a vital role in creating opportunities for young people as they prepare for and take their first steps into the world of work.
​ 
We’re asking you to pledge support in ways that not only benefit the young people of Scotland but benefit your business too.   You can build a workforce with the right skills and experience now and in the future.

  • Help with recruitment, retention and succession planning 
  • Developing and motivating existing staff 
  • Raising awareness of your industry and organisation ​​
What's Involved?
