Zhongxin Finance, June 15th. National Bureau of Statistics spokesman Fu Linghui pointed out at a press conference on the 15th that from the situation in May, the national epidemic situation has improved as a whole, the order of production and life has gradually recovered, and enterprises have resumed work and production. Theemploymentsituation has generally improved, and the unemployment rate has gradually declined slightly.
Fu Linghui said that in May, the national urban surveyed unemployment rate was 5.9%, down 0.2 percentage points from the previous month.Among them,the unemployment rate of the 25-59-year-old main employment group was 5.1%, also down 0.2 percentage points from the previous month.Indicating that the fundamentals of employment are improving overall.At the same time, the surveyed unemployment rate of migrant agricultural household registration personnel was 6.2%, a decrease of 0.4 percentage points from the previous month. The main body of these personnel is migrant workers. Migrant workers are mainly engaged in labor-intensive industries such as manufacturing, construction, wholesale and retail, and at the same time Most of them are private self-employed and flexible employment, and the employment stability is relatively poor.The improvement in the employment of migrant workers in May also reflects the improvement in economic performance and the effective policies and measures to stabilize employment.
Fu Linghui said thatthe adverse impact of the impact of the epidemic on employment has not been completely eliminated. From the perspective of the overall unemployment rate, it is still at a relatively high level. In May, the national urban survey unemployment rate was 5.9%.At the same time, the unemployment rate of young people is relatively high, which 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.We see that in May,the unemployment rate of young people aged 16-24 was 18.4%, an increase of 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.
"Faced with 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." Fu Linghui said, at the same time, it is necessary to strengthen assistance to enterprises to stabilize jobs and ease enterprises. temporary difficulties, overcome difficulties, and stabilize employment.It is also necessary to do a good job in vocational skills training to promote the orderly connection of supply and demand in the labor market.At the same time, it is necessary to actively promote industrial upgrading and development, create high-quality jobs, and create more favorable conditions for the employment of college students.(Finish)
