Job opportunities for young people, women and elderly people are the main topic of this year's government white paper on people's lifestyles. Many young people can't seem to get the jobs they really want. Women are experiencing a hard time finding jobs after giving birth or after raising their children. Elderly people struggle to find post-retirement work.
The white paper, published by the Cabinet Office, is subtitled "Toward a society of diversified possibilities." It focuses on the difficulties people face in their job search.
