In March, the number of unemployed in the municipality of Cartagena grew by 29 people and unemployed stood at 18,598, according to the Regional Centre of Statistics of the Autonomous Community.
This increase of 0.1 percent is below the national and regional figures and confirms the slowdown in the growth of unemployment in our municipality, as noted by Councilman Job, Javier Herrero.
Smith figures to invite some optimism, since January 2007, unemployment is growing, but increasingly less so.
Even in the field of youth unemployment during the month of March has been a decline, with 92 fewer unemployed, rising from February 5361, to 5269.
According to Smith the service sector is the shooting and encouraging the slowdown.
