These problems will not disappear with the economic recovery and left unchecked will have grave social and economic consequences.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOnly private sector growth can create the jobs we need and we must ensure the fruits of recovery are felt in every region. We need to get the UK working and that is going to require fresh thinking and innovative solutions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Latest unemployment figures will be published on Wednesday, and the CBI said it expects the current total of 2.46 million to continue rising through 2011, peaking at 2.6 million, before edging lower next year.<\/p>\n<p>The CBI said long-term unemployment and economic inactivity had been hidden by the cyclical rise and fall in employment, pointing out that 1.4 million people on out of work benefits had been receiving them for nine out of the last 10 years. The business group added that youth unemployment had risen \u201csignificantly\u201d since the start of the recession, with 935,000 people aged between 16 and 24 now out of work.<\/p>\n<p>Public sector dependency was particularly high in Wales, parts of Scotland, Northern Ireland, the North East and Merseyside, but less so in Cumbria, the Midlands and the south of England, said the CBI report.<\/p>\n<p>A Department for Business spokesman said: \u201cOur economic priority is strong, sustainable and balanced growth that is more evenly shared across the country and between industries. With major commitments last week from Nissan and BMW we are seeing signs of successful rebalancing of the economy towards exports and manufacturing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe also launched the second stage of our plan for growth last week. There will be an intensive programme of engagement with business over the coming months as we develop a radical programme of reforms and action plans for growth in areas like skills, the rural economy and medium sized businesses.\u201d<br \/>Source: Press Association<\/p>\n<h4>Comments<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n<p>Read the original post:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.ghanabusinessnews.com\/2011\/06\/13\/economic-recovery-wont-end-uks-job-drought\/\" title=\"Economic recovery \u2018won\u2019t end UK\u2019s job drought\u2019\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Economic recovery \u2018won\u2019t end UK\u2019s job drought\u2019<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> You Are Here: Home \u00bb Africa\/International \u00bb Economic recovery \u2018won\u2019t end UK\u2019s job drought\u2019 Page last updated at Monday, June 13, 2011 5:05 AM \/\/ The Government has been urged to tackle the UK\u2019s \u201cstructural jobs deficit\u201d after a leading business group warned that deep-rooted problems would not be solved by the economic recovery.
