demographic differences and regional distribution

The gender -specific analysis shows that of the 20,198 unemployed 11,538 men, which corresponds to a quota of 5.7% and 8,660 women whose rate is 4.8%. While the number of unemployed in men has increased around 115 compared to the previous month, the women have a decrease of 128. This reflects a positive turn in the employment of women in the region.

The distribution of unemployment also varies regionally. In Gießen, 9,406 people are unemployed, which corresponds to 43 more than in the previous month, and a rate of 6.2%. In the Wetteraukreis, the number of unemployment dropped to 8,144, which corresponds to a quota of 4.7%. In Vogelsbergkreis there was a decline from 13 to 2,648 unemployed, which means a rate of 4.6%.

A look at the development of right circles shows that unemployment in basic security (SGB II) decreased, while in unemployment insurance (SGB III) there was an increase of 102 to 7,471 unemployed. The job centers report a total of 12,727 unemployed people, 6,584 of whom are assigned to the Gießen job center.

In summary, the current labor market report shows that despite small progress with regard to the number of unemployment, there are considerable challenges. In particular, the increasing number of young unemployed and the regional differences raise questions about the stability and future of the labor market.
