Companies in the Isle of Man should be given incentives to employ young people, according to Onchan MHK Peter Karran.
His suggestion comes after Wednesday's unemployment figures showed around 300 of them classed as 'NEETs', or Not in Education, Employment or Training.
They aren't included in the 'official' jobless total, which currently stands at 822.
Mr Karran is calling for the relevant government departments to take action:
Ribbon cut on fully refurbished M&S store
Staff, the Island's Lieutenant Governor and a giant inflatable Percy Pig mark completion of store makeover
Inflation falls to 2.9 percent in March
Restaurant, food and education costs continue to rise
Is 'inter-generational home sharing' the solution to the loneliness epidemic and housing crisis?
Island businessman says he has found the answer
DfE provided more than £250,000 to MT to assist with below ground fibre installations
Minister says figure was to ensure premises deemed not commercially viable could be included in rollout
