European Parliament
Maria Da Graça Carvalho  (PPE ),
in writing.
(PT)
I voted for this report, as I believe that people approaching retirement age, the long-term unemployed, non-EU workers and low-skilled workers are among those hardest hit by the crisis. Given that the labour market situation is particularly critical for all young people, regardless of their level of education, who often end up with precarious employment contracts and in unpaid traineeships, and that the difficult situation of young people is partly because of mismatches between acquired skills and labour market demand, I voted for this report.
