title: Unemployment figures at highest level: a health warning.
abstract: The effects of unemployment can have a detrimental impact on individuals, families and society. It has been announced that the latest unemployment figures demonstrate that the employment rate fell by 0.3 percentage points to 70.4% of the working population in the 3months to August. This reflects the fragility of the global economy and the Government's aspirations to reduce spending.
