Is the methodology standardised enough to actually make these numbers comparable?

10% unemployment is great depression levels in the US. when it hits 5% people lose their shit.

Wow, never thought I would ever see this. Countries with worst economic metrics in Europe are Scandinavians?

What the hell is going on with the Nordics in this map?
Why is Sweden among the worst and why Norway doesn’t even have a number? Google says it’s about 4.3.

I’m honestly thinking of emigrating elsewhere in the EU from Finland. Last year a quarter of new graduates in my field were unemployed. So unless i get a safe government job it might be on the horizon.
Maybe Italy.

i wish different goverment now…

It’s funny because the Nordics have pretty good employment rates, if you look at it from the other way, they for example have higher employment rates than Poland, even if they have higher unemployment rates.
Spain won 6 million population in the last 6years… All of them migrants cuz got one of the lowest fertility rates in the world… It’s insane the quantity of migrants and how they are destroying the job market making the minium salary the most common in Spain right now… But still coming more and more…

These numbers mean nothing anyway. They’re always sourced from official government records, basically “unemployed” is defined as “currently in the unemployment system”. Millions of people simply never register. It actually speaks _well_ for Spain, Sweden, Finland, and France that they are so blue, it means people there actually use the unemployment system. It means it’s working.
On top of that, there are millions more people who are _technically_ employed, but whose jobs absolutely do not cover their needs.
We’ve been dealing with a poverty crisis in the west for some 30 years now and none of it is visible or talked about because of maps like this.

Can we stop using unemployment rate as a metric of social and economic health. It doesnt even include people who gave up on looking for work. And counts people who work at all, regardless of salary or time worked. Look at median salaries, at housing prices, at population happiness. Capitalism is not your friend. People are

I wish the jobs that have been created in Spain were of any use, but they are all permanent-intermittent positions that pay a pittance, and companies face no consequences for dismissing their employees.

Every time one of these graphs of unemployment comes up it’s almost always borderline useless. In this map Italy for example has 5.6% unemployment rate contra 10.2% that of Finland. But if you look at the employment rate Finland had 77% of its population employed in 2024, meanwhile Italy had 67.1%
All maps like this say is that there should be a standardized measuring system for how to count labor market statistics

I’m a bit said to see traditions go… oh well, I guess exploding the population does improve some ratios…

Unemployment? Import 1 million immigrants!
Natural-Ad773 on
In Sweden, their unemployment rate amongst native swedes is about 4-4.5% and 15-19% for foreign born.
LumpyLingonberry on
9% in Sweden is crazy. If you are motivated to work and a bit competent it is easy to get a job. Or just use the free education and go for a sector with lots of jobs.
