Unemployment Rate in the Philippines

aha so nangunguna talaga ang Pilipinas pagdating sa mga taong walang trabaho, huh!  ikaw, may trabaho ka ba na kumikita?  o marami lang trabaho pero walang kita? nu ang ikinabubuhay mo?  baka naman may trabaho ka pero gusto mo ng extra na kita?  Marami na akong pinasok at sinubok.  So far ang medyo ok ako ay ang idea ng VMobile Load Extreme
kung saan pwede ka magload sa lahat ng network gamit ang isang sim hindi kagaya ng lumang paraan na bawat network ay ibang sim din gamit mo.  Marami pati syang produkto hindi lamang phone load.  Ang isa pang gustong gusto ko ay ang Human ♥ Nature kakaiba sya sa dami ng networking kasi mas kumikita ka sa Sales mo kesa magrecruit ng tao at ipinagmamalaki kong gawa sya sa Pilipinas.  Pro-Poor, Pro-Environment at Pro-Philippines talaga.  All healthy and organic ang sangkap ng kanilang mga produkto.  So kung gusto mo ang ganitong negosyo simulan na ngayon.  agad agad 'ika nga. ;) at huwag ibilang sa statistics ang iyong sarili.

Millions of college-level students are graduating or have graduated again at this time of the year. Millions of Filipinos, then, will be added to the labor workforce and, if available jobs are not enough to absorb them, would surely increase the country’s unemployment rate.

As of the latest quarter, the Philippine unemployment rate stands at 7.10%. This translates to more than 2.89 million Filipinos without work.

It surely is high. In fact, the Philippines has the highest jobless rate in Southeast Asia. Our nearest neighbors Thailand, in contrast, only has 0.83% unemployment rate while Singapore registered an unemployment rate of 1.80%.

The silver lining is that ours apparently is still not that critically severe compared to the jobless rates in other countries.

Worse in Africa

Unemployment is worse in the African region, where more than half of the population is left with no work. Djibouti has the highest recorded unemployment rate at 59.5%, followed by Namibia (51.2%) and Congo (50.3%).

Big economies also suffer from relatively high unemployment. The United States recorded unemployment at 7.60% as of March 2013, while the United Kingdom has 7.80% jobless rate.

In contrast, Japan‘s unemployment rate is 4.30% while China‘s jobless rate is steady at 4.10%

Bad in Europe

Europe is still reeling from a crisis that has affected various Eurozone members, with several countries registering double-digit unemployment rates. Greece, one of the hardest-hit by the crisis in Europe, has a 27.20% unemployment rate as of February 2013.

In Spain, one out of four people (26.02%) is unemployed. In Italy, the jobless rate is 11.60% while the unemployment rate
