eight month low in April while the number of people employed rose at the sharpest pace in nearly seven
years as the economic recovery continues.
The seasonally adjusted unemployment rate slid to 3.7per cent last month, versus 3.9per cent in March
and the lowest since August 2020, Statistics Korea data showed.
The number of employed increased by 652,000 from a year earlier, the fastest pace since August 2014
and more than doubling from 314,000 in March.
That comes after President Moon Jae-in on Monday pledged to further boost fiscal spending if needed
to increase jobs, while paying more attention to young people and women.
The breakdown of data showed jobs were mostly added in healthcare and social services, construction,
and transportation and warehouses, while those at retailers were the hardest hit, losing 182,000 jobs
from a year earlier.
But 61,000 people were employed at accommodation facilities and restaurants, marking the first
increase since the outbreak of coronavirus pandemic.
As part of its social distancing measures, South Korea has enforced a ban on gatherings of more than
five people and forced most businesses including restaurants to shut by 10 p.m.
