Highlights

Employment of qualified young people decreased from XX in the last quarter 2019 to XX in the first quarter 2020

Temporary contracts are less used in the 2020q1 compared to 2019Q4

Employed people are undoubtedly impacted by the recent sanitary crisis due to the COVID-19. Shortly after and as first response, measures like short-time work and financial support to enterprises were implemented in order to keep at bay the expected negative developments on employment and businesses. As regards the labour market, the goal was mainly to maintain employed people at work. However, even if mass dismissals could have been constrained, hiring might have been affected by the pessimistic expectations: enterprises ready to effectively recruit could have withdraw their vacancies, reconsider its plans or put off the recruitment process. Other people like people in probationary periods or trainees might have, in normal times, integrate employment in a longer term but due to the COVID-19 downturn, experienced a job loss. These can be among others mechanisms what can be anticipated as regards employment. Forward, enterprises might encounter long-term difficulties due to change in the the economic activity and lay off in a larger extent.

This article focuses on the changes in the employment observed along the economic crisis based on the quarterly LFS data. It aims at showing the last developments in the employment of young, mid-age and older people as well as it includes an analysis by gender and level of education. Specific point is dedicated to the evolution of part-time and temporary contracts.

The current version reports on the situation in the first quarter 2020 that may eventually include the very early stages of the economic downturn. This means that the impact of the lock-down, that took place in most of EU Member States in the second quarter 2020, will be encompassed in the next update of the article.
