The article deals with the category of young people aged 15 to 24 who do not work, do not study and do not participate in professional retraining (NEET-youth). For the study data from the Survey on Labour Market: Unemployment of Rosstat for 1995–2015 were used. The author points out that the number of NEET youth in Russia has decreased over this period due to the active involvement of young people in education, however, the discrepancy between the education received and the requirements of the labour market, its low level and the massization of higher education lead to unemployment among youth.
