A report by the International Labour Organization,
recently released, analyzes the present and the future of unemployment in the
world. The prediction is that the year that Mauritania is the country with more
unemployment in the world, with a 30.6% of its population without employment,
followed by the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia and the island of
Reunion, with a 29.8% and 29.3% respectively. Lesotho, is located in fourth
place with 28.6%, and with half a point, Bosnia and Herzegovina. Then Spain and
Greece are 27% and, further away, with a 25.1% South Africa, the island of
Guadeloupe with a 24.5% and Swaziland, with 23.5%.
At the other end, the countries that recorded less
than 1% of unemployed are Cambodia (0.4%), Qatar and Rwanda (both 0.6%) and
Thailand, with a 0.9%.
The Agency experts stressed that both the economies of
rich countries as in the European Union, the conditions of the labour market
have shown no signs of improvement in 2013. In the countries of Central and
Eastern Europe - that are not members of the EU--and former Soviet republics
fall in the number of registered jobs since the beginning of the crisis in 2009
was reversed in 2013.
Opportunities in Latin America and Caribbean
In other regions, such as Latin America and Caribbean,
is continued creating employment, in contrast to East Asia, where the figures
were much lower. In South-East Asia and Oceania, the increase was 1.6% in 2013
and higher growth is expected in the next few years. In South Asian labor
markets still cornered by agricultural jobs and economy, with low-paying jobs
and without protection.
In Middle East and North Africa, economic growth was
insufficient to generate one sufficient number of jobs and unemployment rates
continue to be of the highest in the world. Finally, in sub-Saharan Africa,
paid jobs are still very few, with a rate of unstable employment from 77.4% in
2013, the highest in the world.
