Damian (19) works full-time as a truck driver and loves his job. Yet one thing bothers him: the youth wage. Despite his experience, Damian earns less than older colleagues who are just starting out. Because of the low wage, he cannot live on his own, even though he would like to. In the three-part documentary series Valse Start, Damian, Yvonne and Remco show how they (survive) on a youth wage. Renting a house, continuing your studies or simply paying for groceries is (almost) impossible due to this low wage. FNV Young & United is therefore taking action together with them and many other young adults to abolish the youth wage. Will you also take action against the youth wage?
