Let's talk about numbers. How many unemployed people are we talking about?<\/strong>\r\n\r\n\""We're talking about about 850,000, that's the most up-to-date figure we have right now, of which about 600,000 are on unpaid leave and the rest are resignations, layoffs, and so on.".\r\n\r\nHow much is that in percentage?<\/strong>\r\n\r\n\""We actually report the same people who register with us and we see them at the various bureaus. Citizens who settle with us and apply for work. Our figure is a little over 21% unemployment.".\r\n\r\nYou can't rely on Google, as the Minister of Finance says, they're talking about 16% - explain.<\/strong>\r\n\r\n\""I really don't know how Google calculates 16%, if it's according to the volume of vehicle activity on the road. I rely on those people who contact us, those 165,000 who registered at the peak. We see this data with us, we register, we see the majority of them, in connection with the majority of them - these are the factual data.".\r\n\r\nLet's talk, if you will, about a very large portion of the unemployed, and these are young people. A lot of young people are approaching the poverty line. How many of them have returned to work?<\/strong>\r\n\r\n\""We are a little above 20%, which is definitely the lower stratum than the other age groups that returned in higher percentages. It doesn't surprise us that young people are a larger part of the unemployed.".\r\n\r\n20%?<\/strong>\r\n\r\n\""20% and a little, we are talking about young people up to the age of 24, those who have no work experience, most of whom are still uneducated, they have no skills and they are the weakest class. Not to mention that among them there are those whose economic support is very small and therefore they are prone to disaster, or those who will be harmed and it will be very difficult to return them to the workforce.".\r\n\r\n We rely on the parents, if they release anything that has a negative impact on the market, they are selling apartments - there is no money - the entire market will follow the circles of these young people who are being released from the labor market.<\/strong>\r\n\r\n\""Yes, we see, a large part of them work in casual jobs, part-time jobs, in restaurants, food, events, sales, and these industries have not yet returned.".\r\n\r\nShops, malls, restaurants.<\/strong>\r\n\r\n\""We also see this in the OECD reports that were published about a month ago, which have very similar characteristics in Europe. Even in 2008, when there was a crisis on a much smaller scale, even then young people were affected and it was very difficult to get them back into the workforce. The report also talks about non-standard, part-time, temporary jobs, the risk of uncertain salary levels, the very high chance of being thrown out of such a job market, and therefore young people without financial support are the first to actually be affected and very quickly fall below the poverty line.".\r\n\r\nEveryone sees themselves as the first to be affected. Are you talking about data that matches the National Insurance data, not going out of line? Will this be with us for a long time to come?<\/strong>\r\n\r\n\""Without involvement in this matter, it is impossible to bring them back. We must use this time, especially for young people who lack skills and work experience. We must help them.".\r\n\r\nWhat does it mean to help?<\/strong>\r\n\r\n\""Train them, take advantage of the time and see how. Budgets, budgets are needed here to train and give them skills, to prepare them so that when there are more and more jobs, and I believe that the economy will slowly recover, when it recovers, there will be jobs. Just a few days ago, 42,000 jobs were advertised, it's starting to recover, we see it. A month ago there were 20,000, today it's 40,000, I believe that the market will slowly recover.".\r\n\r\nYou can't work at everything, it depends on each person's abilities.<\/strong>\r\n\r\n\""Maybe you can go to a job that provides some kind of income and at the same time go and acquire skills and training, prepare yourself for the future market.".\r\n\r\nI'm talking about students who are studying. There are problems here too, he can't go to another professional training because it means he's making a turn in his life, and as we know, one thing leads to another. It doesn't work out.<\/strong>\r\n\r\n\""True, but we are not all students. Those who are studying today and working for a living are studying for it, but those who are not studying - and a large part are not studying - we need to pay attention to them to see how we can help them, to get them back into the workforce.".\r\n\r\nIs there a willingness on the part of the government to do something like this? Are you talking about it?<\/strong>\r\n\r\n\""Not the National Insurance, my minister said, the Minister of Economy said that the Employment Service belongs to the Ministry of Economy, which will definitely allocate budgets. We are in discussions with the Ministry of Finance on this matter, I believe that both the minister and I will succeed in obtaining the budgets that are required. Without budgets, we will not be able to do anything. We have not yet reached conclusions and I still hope that we will do it because there is no time.".\r\n\r\nSegmentation of men and women?<\/strong>\r\n\r\n\""We see in the report more women in the young ages up to 24, slightly above 60%. We see this mainly in the young, and as the age increases, a little less.".\r\n\r\nWhy women?<\/strong>\r\n\r\n\""Some of these are the same jobs as I listed in the sales, restaurant, events, and so on industries.".\r\n\r\nAre more women working in these professions?<\/strong>\r\n\r\n\""Right, right.".\r\n\r\nThank you very much, Director General of the Employment Service, just so that it doesn't become a crisis for the younger generation. We hope we can get out of this.<\/strong>\r\n\r\n\""We need to take action on this matter.".\r\n\r\n
