Unemployment in the Horn district: Women particularly affected!

In the Horn district, the Situation on the labor market becomes increasingly worrying, especially for women. As the NÖN , the number of unemployed women rose to 223 at the end of January 2025, which means a frightening increase of 36 people compared to the previous year. This is in a strong contrast to the male number of unemployment, which went back to 470, which corresponds to a minimal reduction of 0.6 percent. A total of 693 people are now registered unemployed in the AMS Horn, which represents an increase of 5 percent in the year.

The entrepreneurial landscape in the district also shows no relaxation: the MeinDzirk reports of an increase in unemployment in sectors such as traffic with a remarkable 43.8 percent and trading with 22.5 percent. If one compares the age groups, increasing unemployment can be observed in both people of the main age and young people; However, the increase in older workers from the age of 50 remains relatively low, only 0.9 percent. This reflects a worrying trend that, despite the increasing number of open positions of 215 and 73 available apprenticeships, continues to lead to a vulnerable situation for women.

Ferdinand Schopp, the branch manager of the AMS Horn, also emphasizes that the job market still offers a variety of qualification options to close the gap between open spots and job seekers. Despite the current challenges, 135 jobs in the district have already been successfully filled, which is a glimmer of hope in the middle of these worrying statistics.
