Zhongxin Finance, June 15th. National Bureau of Statistics spokesman Fu Linghui said at a press conference on the 15th that the unemployment rate of young people is high, and this also needs to be taken seriously.
The main reason is that under the influence of the epidemic, the production and operation of enterprises has been difficult, and the ability to absorb employment has declined. At the same time, young people are more inclined to apply for stable positions, which has exacerbated the contradiction between supply and demand.
In May, the unemployment rate for young people aged 16-24 was 18.4%, up 0.2 percentage points from the previous month.
This year, there are 10.76 million college graduates in my country. With the arrival of the graduation season, college graduates will enter the labor market in a concentrated manner, which may further increase the employment pressure.
In the face of these complex situations, the next step is to implement various measures to stabilize the economic market, promote the stable recovery of the economy, and enhance the ability to absorb employment.
