Euro zone unemployment eased to 7.4% of the workforce in September as expected, the EU's statistics office said today, as the economy continues to recover from the recession caused by the Covid-19 pandemic.
The statistics office said 12.079 million people were without jobs in the 19 countries sharing the euro in September, compared to 12.334 million, or 7.5% of the workforce, in August.
This is the lowest reading since April 2020 when the unemployment rate was 7.3%.
