Young people facing difficulties in entering the workforce: poorer health.

Health screening centers have conducted a comprehensive study on the health of young people facing difficulties in integrating into society. The findings are clear: these young people are in poorer physical and mental health than the average. They consume more tobacco and alcohol than their peers who are successfully integrated, are more socially vulnerable, and do not have the same level of access to healthcare. Only a "multidisciplinary" approach to health can improve the situation, the authors of this study emphasize.
