MILAN (ITALPRESS) – 57 percent of teenagers are worried about not having enough money to live on, while 23 percent are scared of the effects of climate change. These are some of the results obtained from the survey that Radioimmaginaria, the teenagers’ radio station, conducted in collaboration with INPS, the National Social Security Institute, on a sample of more than 300 students, aged 10 to 19, from all over Italy. Despite these concerns, 37 percent are curious to find out what job they will have when they grow up, although 30 percent live in a state of anxiety if they think about the job they will have in the future. Most (56 percent) believe that every worker should be protected or sheltered by the state. Once a job is found, 52% of the youth surveyed say that a worker should worry about how much free time he or she will have for the family, whether he or she will earn enough (50%), and how to get by if he or she loses his or her job (45%).But what are the students’ doubts and how can they begin to build their future right away? To talk about this Radioimmaginaria did two live broadcasts from the Scarabelli Ghini Agricultural Chemical Technical Institute in Imola (BO) and from the Liceo Statale Carlo Tenca in Milan with the program “Ti accompagnagno a scuola – La previdenza non è roba da vecchi” featuring Francesco Ricci, INPS Emilia-Romagna regional director, and Alberto Dotto, INPS Milan director. When thinking about social security, 44 percent of young people surveyed associate it with when they will be old and unable to work while for 26 percent it is something complicated that they cannot yet understand. Finally, a surprising fact, 88 percent of the sample knows what the acronym INPS means.-photo press office Radioimmaginaria – (ITALPRESS).
