Unemployment and jobs in Bergamo
Unemployment is the share of the labour force without work, as reported to Eurostat. National definitions and sources can differ, and the registered-unemployment rate a national agency publishes may differ too. Jobs are counted where people work, so a city with many commuters can have more jobs than residents.
