At the end of October 2023, 1,753 people were registered unemployed at the labor market service (AMS) Amstetten. This represents an increase of 20.9 percent compared to the previous year. Nevertheless, the number of unemployed remains almost identical to the time before Coronapandemie when 1,762 people were registered in the same month, as Harald Vetter, the head of the Amstetten, explained.
A positive signal sends the number of 3,864 job seekers who have already ended their unemployment this year through a job. In addition, a record number of over 32,000 placement proposals was issued by the AMS team, which is a third more than in the previous year.
