While the results from the Quarterly Labour Force Survey for the fourth quarter of 2020 showed that the number of employed people increased to 15 million, it also showed that the number of unemployed people increased to 7.2 million.

The country has recorded the highest unemployment rate since 2008.

The rate has increased by 1.7 percentage points during the fourth quarter of last year.
