Coronavírus coloca em risco 59m de empregos na Europa

April 20, 2020 - O desemprego na Europa pode quase duplicar nos próximos meses,
podendo a pandemia colocar em risco até 59 milhões de empregos,
segundo estimativas da consultora McKinsey.

The consulting firm estimates that one in four jobs across the European Union and the United Kingdom are at risk of a reduction in hours or pay, temporary furloughs or permanent layoffs.

The most high risk occupations include 54.8 million workers, most of whom work in close proximity to others and have significant exposure to the general public; they include retail cashiers, cooks, and actors.

McKinsey estimates that the Covid-19 pandemic could almost double Europe’s unemployment rate in the coming months. In a worst-case scenario – in which Europe fails to contain the virus within three months and is forced to continue social distancing measures through the summer – the EU-27 unemployment rate will peak at 11.2% in 2021, with a full recovery to the precrisis level of 6.3% unlikely until 2024.
