Unemployment Figures September 2012
Latest unemployment figures were released today 12th September
The unemployment rate in the UK dropped by 0.1 percentage points to 8.1% in the
three months to July.
But, there is a more complex picture beyond the headline good news. The number of people out of work for a
year or more was 904,000; the highest for 16 years, while the number in
part-time work was 8.12m, the highest since records started in 1992. A lot of
people who are working part time are doing so because they cannot find any
other work. .
With business confidence still at rock bottom, it's a rare employer
who's seeking to ramp up headcount right now.

Age doesn't matter
Just minutes away from the office the GB team went on a celebration tour of the City and West End ending up at Buckingham Palace. My team said how about we go and take a look so off we went to find at some points the crowds where 40 people deep. It got me think as the athlete's went past, it doesn't matter your age its your skills that count. How true is that in life and something Forties People have been saying for the last 20 years.
