INFOKU, BLORA -.Recorded by the Blora Central Statistics Agency (BPS), the unemployment rate in Blora has decreased by almost 5 percent.
However, in terms of labor absorption , it is still not optimal.
BPS Blora noted that in August last year, the number of unemployed was recorded at 16,746 people.
Down by 880 people or around 4.99 percent compared to the same period in the previous year.
Head of the Blora Industry and Manpower Agency ( Dinperinaker ) Endro Budi Darmawan said that the significant growth in the workforce has not been matched by the availability of sufficient job opportunities.
Because, there are tens of thousands of residents who have not yet found work.

"Although there is a decrease in the number of unemployed in Blora, if you look at the figures, it turns out that there are still tens of thousands of Blora residents who have not found work," explained Endro when met on Wednesday (09/10/2024).
Job Fair & Yellow Card
Endro explained that his party continues to strive to provide services and facilities for job seekers in Blora.
Some of the programs carried out include job fairs , yellow cards (AK-1), Makaryo applications, and the provision of job training at job training centers .
"We routinely hold a job fair agenda every year and invite high school/vocational school students so that they are ready to work after graduating," said Endro.
In addition to the Job Fair, Endro also explained that Disperinaker also facilitates the making of yellow cards (AK-1), which is one of the administrative requirements for job seekers to apply for jobs, both in the private and government sectors.
"In addition to making yellow cards, we are also trying to digitize in providing targeted job vacancy information through the Makaryo application," said Endro.
Endro added that Disperinaker also routinely provides training facilities for prospective workers, we also organize training in various work skills which are carried out at the Job Training Center.
