In the EU-27 in 2010 there were 8.5 million underemployed part-time workers, 2.4 million jobless persons seeking a job but not immediately available for work, and 8.2 million persons available for work but not seeking it. These three groups of persons do not fulfil all the criteria of the unemployment definition of the International Labour Organisation. In November 2011, Eurostat released three new indicators covering these groups in order to supplement the unemployment rate indicator. |
