UNEMPLOYMENT Eurostati3?ZI Statistical Telegram
.------------5m-1ll(#-7-. ·{_ UNEMPLOYMENT eurostatI3?ZI Statistical Telegram I I I 14 novembre 1980 MONTHLY STATISTICS OF REGISTERED UNEMPLOYED IN THE COMMUNITY - October 1980 - Unemployment in the Community continues to increase steadily. At the end of October 1980 it amounted to 7.4 million persons, or 6.7% of the civilian working population, compared with 7.1 million or 6.5% at the end of Septem ber. For the Community as a whole unemployment has thus risen by 3 percent in the course of the month. Particularly marked increases were recorded in Denmark and Luxembourg (10% or more) as well as in the F.R. of Germany (8%). Between October 1979 and October 1980 the total number of registered unemployed has risen by 1,281,000 persons or by more than 20% in one year. This increase even exceeded 50% in the United Kingdom and in Denmark and was of the order of 34% in the Netherlands and in Ireland. The smallest increases were noted in Luxem bourg (5.7%), in France (7.1%) and in Italy (8.4%). In those countries having the greatest increase in unemployment during the past year, the proportion of unemployed persons aged under 25 years has tended to increase. This proportion has been estimated at 41.4% at the end of October 1980 for the Community as a whole. The percentage of women in the total of unemployed has declined compared with October of last year in all Community countries with the exception of France where it has remained practically unchanged and of Italy and Luxembourg where it has increased. -
