The National Jobs Strategy and Youth Employment Strategy are two of the 31 priority projects contained in the Economic Recovery Plan.

The Youth Employment Strategy aims to meet the identified needs of unemployed persons between the ages of 18 and 26, guide unemployed Bermudian youth back to work, and train them in jobs currently occupied by guest workers.

The National Jobs Strategy aims to reduce unemployment, prevent future unemployment, create ease of access to employment opportunities, and increase opportunities for the training and development required to equip Bermudians for the current and future world of work.
