    Description

    As of December 2024, the unemployment rate in Przemysl was 10 percent, the highest unemployment rate among Polish cities. Grudziadz followed it at 9.8 percent. The lowest unemployment was in Poznań and Katowice. The total unemployment rate in Poland amounted to 5.1 percent in 2024. Job interviews in Poland According to data from 2021, for more than half of the respondents, the most challenging question during a job interview in Poland was about a former boss’s opinion of a candidate, followed by where respondents see themselves in the future. On the other hand, in the same year, more than one out of three job candidates heard a recruiter ask them to say a few words about themselves. However, in 2021, 66 percent of job applicants found job interviews stressful, which might impact their work-related success. Level of unemployment in Poland In the fourth quarter of 2022, the number of unemployed was higher for women (436 thousand) than for men (376 thousand persons); these numbers have dropped compared to the previous year. In the fourth quarter of 2022, Poland's highest number of unemployed persons was between 25 to 34 years old, which was nearly 208 thousand. However, the average period of active job search by unemployed Poles was more than eight months in the same period.

    Description

    This dataset contains the Local Area Unemployment Statistics (LAUS), annual averages from 1990 to 2023.

    The Local Area Unemployment Statistics (LAUS) program is a Federal-State cooperative effort in which monthly estimates of total employment and unemployment are prepared for approximately 7,600 areas, including counties, cities and metropolitan statistical areas. These estimates are key indicators of local economic conditions.

    The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) of the U.S. Department of Labor is responsible for the concepts, definitions, technical procedures, validation, and publication of the estimates that State workforce agencies prepare under agreement with BLS.

    Estimates for counties are produced through a building-block approach known as the "Handbook method." This procedure also uses data from several sources, including the CPS, the CES program, state UI systems, and the Census Bureau's American Community Survey (ACS), to create estimates that are adjusted to the statewide measures of employment and unemployment. Estimates for cities are prepared using disaggregation techniques based on inputs from the ACS, annual population estimates, and current UI data.

    Description

    Employment and unemployment data by city for places in San Mateo County. CDP is "Census Designated Place" - a recognized community that was unincorporated at the time of the 2000 Census.

    1) Data may not add due to rounding. All unemployment rates shown are calculated on unrounded data. 2) These data are not seasonally adjusted.

    Methodology: Monthly city and CDP labor force data are derived by multiplying current estimates of county employment and unemployment by the employment and unemployment shares (ratios) of each city and CDP at the time of the 2000 Census. Ratios for cities of 25,000 or more persons were developed from special tabulations based on household population only from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. For smaller cities and CDP, ratios were calculated from published census data.

    City and CDP unrounded employment and unemployment are summed to get the labor force. The unemployment rate is calculated by dividing unemployment by the labor force. Then the labor force, employment, and unemployment are rounded.

    This method assumes that the rates of change in employment and unemployment, since 2000, are exactly the same in each city and CDP as at the county level (i.e., that the shares are still accurate). If this assumption is not true for a specific city or CDP, then the estimates for that area may not represent the current economic conditions. Since this assumption is untested, caution should be employed when using these data.

    Dataset provided by
    California Department of Public Health
    Description

    This table contains data on the percent of the population in the labor force who are unemployed (unemployment rate), for California, its regions, counties, county divisions, cities/towns, and census tracts. Data is from the Local Area Unemployment Statistics (LAUS), Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), and the U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey (ACS). The table is part of a series of indicators in the Healthy Communities Data and Indicators Project of the Office of Health Equity. Unemployment is associated with higher rates of self-reported poor health, long-term illnesses, higher incidence of risky health behaviors (alcoholism, smoking), and increased mortality. Various explanations have been proposed for the link between poor health and unemployment; for example, economic deprivation that results in reduced access to essential goods and services. Another explanation is that unemployment causes the loss of latent functions (social contact, social status, time structure and personal identity) which can result in stigma, isolation and loss of self-worth. More information about the data table and a data dictionary can be found in the About/Attachments section.
