Halle (dpa / sa) - The regional directorate of the Federal Employment Agency informed today (10:00 a.m.) about the situation on the labor market in Saxony-Anhalt.
Experts assume that unemployment rose due to seasonal factors in December.
Experience has shown that fewer outdoor activities are possible in winter, as a spokesman explained.
That applies to agriculture, for example.
In November, around 81,400 people were registered as unemployed in Saxony-Anhalt.
The unemployment rate was 7.3 percent.
The effects of the more recent restrictions to contain the corona pandemic are only likely to be visible in the coming months.
However, experts expect short-time working to increase in order to be able to keep employees.
