Job Guide Issued
For Young Workers
WASHINGTON, D. C —
"Young people must continue
their education and training as I
long as possible to qualify for !
the skilled jobs of the 1960’s,”
Secretary of Labor Wirtz said
in releasing the Bureau of Em
ployment Security’s 1963-64 ed
ition of the “Job Guide for
Young Workers."
“The Job Guide will furnish
young people with valuable in
formation regarding the duties,
characteristics, qualifications,
employment prospects, ad
vancement opportunities, and
methods of entry for a wide
variety of jobs frequently held
by young people leaving high
school. In addition, the publi
cation provides practical and
helpful suggestions regarding
pertinent factors to be consid
ered in making job choices .”
The Guide, designed to help
get young workers off to a good
start in their working life, is
prepared by the Bureau’s Unit
ed States Employment Service
in cooperation with State em- j
plovment security agencies !
The up-to-date information !
'ontained in the 73-page book- j
let represents the accumulal
ed experience and knowledge ;
about jobs for youth gained by ;
specialists in public employ
ment offices in their daily con
tact with young workers and
with employers of young peo i
pie.
The Job Guide will be used
by more than ten thousand
high schools which have coop
erative arrangements with lo
cal offices of State employment
services. Under this program,
counseling, testing and place
ment assistance is given high
school students planning to
look for employment. It is esti
mated that close to 600,000 high
school seniors will be register
ed by the public employment
offices in this cooperative pro
ject during this school year.
Copies of the Job Guide may
be purchased from the Super
intendent of Documents, U. S
Print'ng Office, Washington
25, D C., at 45 cents each
