- Abstract
- Unemployment rate in the Alpine Convention area in 2004/2005 (on NUTS-3 level)*.
The distribution of the unemployment rates confirms a concentration of economic welfare close to the well-developed and easily accessible intra-Alpine areas. A clear demarcation between the Alpine fringe and the Alpine centres is observable (Map B2-2): the regions with the highest unemployment rates are situated on the peripheral western and eastern fringes of the Alps, while those with moderate rates are located in the central parts of the Alps.
The unemployment rate in the Alpine arc amounted to almost 6% in 2003 (BAK 2005) and is lower than the average value of the EU-15 which amounted to 8% in the same year (EUROSTAT 2004). It varies regional between 14.2% in Podravska/Slovenia and 1.2% in the Swiss Canton of Uri. 13 NUTS-3 regions out of 99 are attaining an unemployment rate below the 3% threshold. Besides eight Swiss cantons and Liechtenstein also four Italian provinces (Cuneo, Bolzano, Lecco, Belluno) are below that threshold.
* The relatively high rate of unemployment of Austrian Tirol is probably due to seasonal variations caused by tourism and the reason is probably the same for the Berchtesgaden area. The Rosenheim area has one of the highest unemployment rates in Oberbayern.
