It draws raw data from the European Union Labour Force Survey (EU-LFS) from 2006 to 2013 to compare the distribution of transition probabilities from the labor market state of employment, unemployment and inactivity and vice versa, for Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal and examine whether the distributions are gender sensitive. The chapter also examines whether school-to-work transition probabilities for these countries differ for males and females and to what extent. Additionally, the crisis' impact on the individual's labor market position is studied by country and by sex with the use of mobility indices. The EU-LFS is an important data source, as it provides extensive evidence on labor market participation and working conditions of European citizens.
