(108,903 posts)11. German unemployment rate rises to 6.8% in June
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-18625185
The number of people out of work in Germany rose by 7,000 in June to give a jobless rate of 6.8% of the workforce, according to official figures.
The German Employment Agency's figures recorded the third consecutive monthly increase.
However, the relatively modest rise left the percentage of the workforce without a job unchanged.
The actual number out of work in June was 2.882 million, from an upwardly revised 2.875 million in May.
