The economic recovery that started in the EU in the spring of 2013 remains subdued and recent GDP forecasts for the EU have been revised down.
However, despite the weak macroeconomic background, employment has shown a small but consistent growth in the EU since mid-2013, according to the latest Employment and Social Situation Quarterly Review. As the Review shows, all types of employment are growing. This means not only temporary and part-time employment, but also permanent and full time.
Many challenges remain, in particular long-term unemployment and low employment opportunities for youth (15-24) and young adults aged 25-39.
