Recent data from the Department of Employment and Employment of the Basque Government show that the unemployment rate at the end of the year has fallen to around 8%, a figure that has barely dropped a few tenths since the end of 2021 – 2020. In 1996, the unemployment rate was 10%.
With complete data, in Araba, Bizkaia and Gipuzkoa there are 110,798 unemployed and registered active people 4,047 fewer than a year earlier.
