The Labour Market and Wage Developments in Europe report analyses the labour market from a macroeconomic perspective. It provides an analysis of recent employment and wage developments, looking at the euro area and the EU as a whole in comparison with its global trading partners.

This 2019 report shows that the labour market has proved so far resilient. In 2018, improvements in the EU labour market continued at a steady pace. The economic slowdown in the second half of 2018 had only a minor impact on job creation. In August 2019, the EU unemployment rate reached 6.2%, the lowest level since January 2000.
