Unemployment Figure Could Be Double, TUC Says

Written By Unknown on Minggu, 08 September 2013 | 11.46

Unemployment could be almost double the headline figure of 2.5 million when groups such as the economically inactive are added, the Trade Union Congress has claimed.

According to the TUC, as well as the 2.5 million official jobless figure, a further 2.26 million people want a job but are not classified as unemployed.

A report published ahead of the TUC Congress which opens in Bournemouth on Sunday said wider forms of unemployment should be given the same level of importance in the UK as in the US.

General secretary Frances O'Grady said: "Unemployment may have started to fall in recent months but we are still in the midst of a job crisis.

"The true scale of unemployment is far bigger than official figures suggest, as nearly five million people say they want work today.

"With a further 1.4 million people only able to find part-time work, despite needing a full-time job to get by, it's clear that our labour market remains far from full healthy.

"We know that the recent fall in unemployment has been driven by short hours, low pay, temporary contracts, and jobs that offer no guarantee of paid work at all.

"These types of jobs cannot form the basis for a secure and sustainable economic recovery."
