According to numbers released by the Institute for Employment and Professional Training (IEFP) this drop represented a 13.3 percent of jobless workers in year-on-year terms.
This number only reflects the number of workers registered at job centres across the country, which totalled 598, 581 people, down
91.954 on 12 months before.
Overall, 849,175 people are currently unemployed while actively seeking work, IEFP figures revealed.
Unemployment was down in all regions of the country, with the Algarve reporting the greatest reduction, with 16.7 percent fewer people queing outside job centres in December 2014
There has been a miracle rise in unemployment in the UK as well but not really a miracle just more people in low paid part time jobs and on zero hour contracts but it makes our Government look good as each part time worker is counted as being in full time employment.If people in the UK in full time work was counted in the UK then the number would be far far less than is Boasted about..that`s Politicians living the dream, when the average person has to live their lies.

Quando vi esta fotografia, pensei que devia ser um engano... Parecia mais a Africa . Então, afinal de contas, não quiseram por la os Portugueses, e agora estão todos em Portugal a mendigar ???
Pois que devolvam as colonias Portuguesas, e Portugal e as colonias voltarão a ter mais para todos. Sim, desta vez, sera para todos uma vida melhor, pois os Europeus de Hoje serão diferentes .
