The Government does not miss an opportunity to sell good economic news. If this Thursday he dressed long to give pageantry to the agreement reached on pensions with employers and unions, this Friday two ministers - and not the secretaries of state, as is usual - have been in charge of putting a face to the good news that the labor market throws in June.
The Minister of Social Security,
José Luis Escrivá,
and the Third Vice President and Minister of Labor,
Yolanda Díaz
, have appeared to present the data that anticipate an intense recovery in employment this summer, with the hiring associated with the beginning of the high season .
Díaz and Escrivá have announced a decrease of
166,911 people
in the number of unemployed and the creation of up to
202,857 new members
of Social Security.
They continue, yes,
447,800 people in ERTE.
"We are
facing the largest historical drop in unemployment
in our country and I mean the entire democratic period," Vice President Díaz has proclaimed.
June traditionally [even in 2020] is a good month for labor statistics in our country, so dependent on the tourist machinery. And although the data presented this Friday show reasons for optimism, there are still great uncertainties about what this summer will be like, such as the impact that the important
hole
generated by the British will have and that is not expected to be solved until the end of July or the international echo that the news about the macro outbreak among students in Palma de Mallorca is reaching.
The labor market already experienced a strong advance last May.
The vaccination campaign and the easing of mobility restrictions led registered unemployment to register
the greatest decrease in its historical series, with a fall of 3.31% and to recover 129,378 workers.
With the data presented this Friday, 3,614,639 people are still unemployed in our country, far from the peak caused by the pandemic, but still very far from being a reasonable rate.
However, the Government sells the important correction for June as a collective success:
5,563 fewer unemployed per day
, according to Vice President Díaz.
Unemployment
has fallen in all the Autonomous Communities
and in all productive sectors, except in Agriculture.
By sectors, it is
Services
, in the heat of the hiring associated with the summer campaign, which has experienced the greatest reduction in the number of unemployed listed in the SEPE list: 131,217 fewer unemployed in June.
