Germany has lost 163,000 industrial jobs as employment crisis continues

Germany has lost 163,000 industrial jobs, according to an analysis of new labour-market figures.

The figures come from Germany’s Federal Employment Agency, and the analysis says the country’s economy is growing again.

The employment crisis is continuing despite that growth, with industry hit particularly hard.

Industry has long been a central part of Germany’s economy, making these job losses important beyond the workers directly affected.

The impact varies widely between regions, and some sectors are gaining jobs even as others lose them.

An interactive map lets people check job changes and unemployment in each German state, but no further developments are specified.
