Of the 26,742 unemployed in the Balearic Islands in May, 15,400 are women (1,089 are under 25) and 11,342 are men (1,286 are under 25). On the other hand, 5,030 are foreigners, which represents a drop of 4.73% compared to 2023, of which 3,254 are non-EU citizens (64.7%) and 1,776 are from EU countries.<\/p>\n

By sector, services lead the number of unemployed on the islands with 19,171 people, followed by construction (3,554), industry (1,240) and agriculture (345).<\/p>\n

Historical unemployment figures for the Balearic Islands<\/h2>\n

For Jordi Mora, president of PIMEM, these “are the best figures for a month of May in the last twenty years. We are talking about historic figures that demonstrate a clear commitment by the business sector to continue generating jobs.”Despite this good situation, Mora points out that “we want to continue to insist on the enormous difficulties that companies have in closing their workforces. We believe that there are two serious problems linked to the world of work: the lack of housing and problems related to the lack of qualified workers due to a lack of training.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
