Both components of the leading labour market indicator of the European Network of Public Employment Services and the IAB rose in April. Following an increase of 0.1 points, the employment component stands at 101.8 points. The employment outlook therefore remains favourable. The unemployment component rose by 0.4 points to 99.3 points. The outlook for unemployment is consequently only slightly negative.
The European economy is fighting its way out of the slack. The mood among European labour market services is on the rise
explains Enzo Weber, IAB head of forecast.
