Why It Matters
Istat monthly survey on the labor market in Italy.
In September the unemployment rate was stable at 6.3% and the youth rate fell to 19.9% (-0.4 points). The growth in people looking for work (+0.3%, equal to +4 thousand units) involves women, 25-34 year olds and 35-49 year olds, while the number of unemployed decreases among men and in other age groups. This is the provisional estimate released by Istat.
The substantial stability of inactive people between 15 and 64 years old is a synthesis of the growth among men and those at least 35 years of age and the decrease among women and other age groups. The inactivity rate is unchanged at 32.7%.
