Don't let 'low unemployment' obscure the brutal reality of underemployment. Real wages for most US workers have barely budged since 1979, despite soaring productivity. This isn't stagnation; it's a feature, not a bug. #Underemployment #EconomicInjustice. Follow @The_Piaz

Yes, there is #underemployment in the #euro area — much more labor #slack than the 6.3% figure suggests. Taken together, broader “labour market slack” is often nearly double the headline unemployment rate.

#labor #demand is weaker than it appears - even though unemployment rates are moderate, many workers are underemployed or discouraged -- #underemployment (U-6) matters for wage pressures, consumer confidence, and Fed policy, particularly when deciding on easing measures.

The 3-month average youth #underemployment rate jumped to 17% in July, the highest since 2020.

This metric includes unemployed individuals aged 16–24.

Now, the youth underemployment rate has climbed by ~5 percentage points over the last 2 years.

The #jobs #market is rapidly deteriorating

I've done it.

This isn't "pressure" or "stress."

This is "insufficient income for the necessities of life." And it can be the case for disableds like me, for the elderly infirm, and for the healthy and hard-working alike.
