Just a year ago, Spain made a bittersweet reading of what 2019 had been like for the labor market.

Unemployment continued to fall and employment continued to rise, it was at highs, but it was already undoubted that the impact of the recovery was cooling by leaps and bounds.

In that January 2020, the data on registered unemployment from the previous December hinted at a worrying change in trend, with the smallest increase in employment since 2013 - some 385,000 more jobs - and the best correction of the number of unemployed since 2012 - some 38,000 unemployed less-.

Today we would sign either of those two figures.

2020 will go down in history for its abrupt - and supervening - job destruction.

While waiting to analyze the impact of the potential third wave, the data on registered unemployment released today by the Ministry of Labor show a negative year-on-year balance of 360,000 jobs and an unprecedented 22% increase in unemployment, to 3, 8 million unemployed.

All this without counting, remember, the number of workers who are still immersed in a Temporary Employment Regulation File (ERTE), 755,000 as of December 31, which are not reflected in the statistics of unemployed and continue to appear in that of affiliates already Social Security.
