The line graph demonstrates the unemployment rate of people aged 15-24 and the overall share of jobless people in five nations in Europe in 2005. In general, it is obvious that the rate of unemployed workers of young people is higher than the general percentage in these countries during the surveyed period.
As can be seen from the table, the figure for people in the 15-24 age group in Poland (roughly 36%) was nearly twice as high as that in Hungary, which accounted for about 18%, making it rank the first in the levels of jobless population. Ranked the second among these five nations, Italy witnessed just under 24% of young people without work. Besides, while approximately 14% of Germans falling into the 15-24 age group are jobless, the unemployment rate of Denmark in this age group only occupied nearly a half of this data.
Turning to the general unemployment levels, Poland also ranked first with about 15% of its population having no job; meanwhile, the lowest unemployment rate belonged to Denmark, which represented just over 3%. The level of joblessness in Germany was relatively high with roughly 10%, ranking this country the second in the overall unemployment rate. The proportion of unemployed people in Italy (about 8%) was slightly higher than that in Hungary (roughly 6%), which made these countries have the third and fourth most unemployed population respectively.
