Annual review 2016
Publication metadata
The labour market in Europe has continued to improve during 2015 and 2016, with unemployment rates moving closer to pre-recession levels. In August 2016, it reached 10.1% in the euro area and 8.6% in the EU, respectively about 2.5 and 2 percentage points below the peak reached in 2013 but still about 3 and 1.5 percentage points above pre-crisis levels. Labour market disparities across the EU and the euro area continued to fall from very high levels.
