All of the above categories on the labour market at the lower levels are compared with the same month last year, which means that the dynamics of unemployment and employment does not correspond, which in turn points to the conclusion that the registered unemployment is significantly influenced by "other" factors along with employment, mainly those that are resulting from the more stringent provisions of the amendments to the law on mediation in employment and unemployment which entered into force at the beginning of last year. This results in a reduction in the contingent and the active population that is in this year's September was at a historically low level (at least since there are monthly data for a somewhat relevant comparison, and it is the since September 1996. g.), with Honeysuckle trend falling back two years.
At the same time, the administrative number of employed in September was at its lowest level (compared to the same month) since 2000. year, and the year-on-year there was 12.2 thousand employees less. It is in legal entities (that employ about 80% of total employees) worked 1 124 660 persons, which is 6.9 thousand less compared to the previous year. The biggest negative absolute difference from last year is recorded in the activity of civil engineering (which employs around 6% of all persons in paid employment in legal entities). There is, in fact, in September this year it was 68 759 persons, 3 202 persons less than in the same month last year. Slightly lower absolute decrease was observed in the store (which employs about 16% of total persons in employment in legal entities) where in September it employed 178 459 people, less than 2 237 of the same month last year. In the processing industry (which is a single core business that employs the most-about 18% of all persons in paid employment in legal entities) in September was registered 196 334 employees, which is 1 603 employed less than last year.
On the other hand, the more employees compared to last year were recorded in some service activities, the most in the tourism industry (the provision of accommodation and food service activities), where the number of employees grew by 2.4 thousand.
It is not difficult to predict that the number of employees affected by the seasonal movement of falling until next spring, and its levels at the end of the year could very closely again to approach the level of 1.30 m and even fall below it. At the level of the average 2015. years, the number of registered employees will certainly stay lower, what will be the seventh consecutive year of his decline, with the lowest level since the end of the nineties of the last century.
