Corona will leave 200 million people unemployed in two years


Unemployment will be a worldwide outcry in the coming years: United Nations

Records of all countries in terms of employment and national income deteriorated in a year and a half: report of the International Labor Organization

If the epidemic had not struck, it would have created employment opportunities for 300 million people in the world in the year 2020-21.

United Nations: A report by the United Nations-affiliated International Labor Organization (ILO) has expressed concern that the epidemic could lead to a global unemployment crisis. It was feared that 20.5 crore new unemployed would be created by 2023.

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, 205 million people in the world will be unemployed by 2023. Right now more than 100 million people in the world are facing unemployment.

The World Employment and Social Outlook: Trends 2021 report said that if the epidemic had not struck, new employment opportunities would have been created for 300 million people in the world by 2020-21.

The Corona epidemic caused havoc in the world, creating 100 million unemployed people instead of creating 300 million jobs. The UN agency said the epidemic would affect the entire decade. In 2020, total working hours fell by 8.8 percent. That means 25.5 crore people work for a year, so many hours are wasted. It will take years to recover.

The report also expressed concern that the epidemic has 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 erratic, they are facing serious economic hardships.

In the first quarter of 2021, about 140 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 overcoming Corona should not be the only goal in the case of Helruth. It is necessary to take steps to create employment by compensating for the financial loss.
