This Data Insight explores how young workers are matched to firms across local labour markets in England, using the Longitudinal Education Outcomes (LEO) dataset.

Homelessness among young people is often treated as a sudden crisis or an individual failure. The results presented in this ADR NI report show that, for many, it is neither.

The research highlights the role of firms in explaining and amplifying this difference.
