There were 1200 fewer available in January, according to seasonally-adjusted figures from the Nav on Friday. The sum of all the available and job seekers on measures fell by 1 100 people.
the Unemployment rate fell in January. It is caused by, among other things, that the number of new which was free to the Nav was at its lowest level since December 2014. However, we see an increase in the number of people that have been available for more than one year, says the ministry of labour and velferdsdirektør Sigrun Vågeng in a press release from Nav on Friday.

“the Unemployment rate increased the most in Finnmark in January, adjusted for normal seasonal variations. Sogn and Fjordane and Hordaland were the counties with the greatest percentage decrease in the number of available in January. Also in California, which has had the greatest increase in the unemployment rate the last few years, the unemployment rate now, decreased somewhat in recent months”, writes the Nav in the message.
the Unemployment rate fell or remained stable in all occupational groups. The unemployment rate fell the most in the engineering and ict subjects, as well as for brokers and consultants.
“This is the first time in over three years that there is a significant decrease for the engineering and ict subjects, as is the occupational group that has had the greatest increase in the unemployment rate the last few years”, writes the Nav of the message.
