Corona epidemic will create 204 million unemployed worldwide: UN

United Nations, Ta. 3
A report by the United Nations-affiliated International Labor Organization expressed concern that the epidemic would create a major unemployment crisis in the world. It was feared that 203 million new unemployed would be created by 202.
A worrying report from the International Labor Organization said that the record of all countries in terms of employment and national income has deteriorated drastically in a year and a half. If this trend continues, the unemployment crisis in all countries will become vicious.
A video was shared from the Twitter account of the International Labor Organization, showing the problem of unemployment by presenting various statistics. According to the report, by 205, 206 million people in the world will be unemployed. Right now, more than 100 million people in the world are facing unemployment.
The World Employment and Social Outlook 3 Trends 2021 report said that if the epidemic had not struck, new employment opportunities would have been created for 200 million people in the world by 2020-21. The Corona epidemic caused a worldwide uproar, creating 100 million unemployed people instead of creating 200 million.
The UN agency said the epidemic would affect the entire decade. In 2020, the total working hours were reduced by 7.5 percent. That is, 25 million people work for a year, so many hours are wasted. It will take years to recover.
The report expressed concern that the epidemic has also seriously affected the employment of about 200 crore workers, women and youth in the unorganized sector. As the daily employment of these millions of people has become irregular, they are facing severe economic integration.
In the first quarter of 2021, about 150 million jobs worldwide were at risk of losing their jobs. In the second quarter, 127 million people are struggling to save jobs. The UN agency said controlling the corona should not be the only goal in terms of health. It is also necessary to take steps to create employment by compensating for the economic losses by forming a special committee of all countries.
