Unemployment at its lowest for almost five years

Lowest figure for any month since November 2010

Unemployment in the Isle of Man fell last month.

It went down by 11, meaning 765 people were registered as out of work and looking for a job by the end of September.

It's the lowest September rate for four years, according to government figures, and sees 94 fewer people registered compared to the same month last year.

It's also the lowest figure registered in any month since November 2010.

At the end of the month there were 521 vacant positions advertised at the Job Centre, around two-thirds of which were permanent ones.
