The mayor of Training and Employment, Sebastián Moreno on Tuesday offered a press conference to warn that "according to data released by the Department of Training and Employment of the Region of Murcia Alhama office received in the first ten months of the year total of 288 shipments of job seekers from other cities in Spain, of which 165 are from neighboring villages in the region, highlighting by number Cartagena, Totana, Murcia and Mazarrón. "
This may be producing an upward distortion in the data unemployment figures in this town, as shipments of job applications from other municipalities, decrease the number of unemployed in their hometowns while in Alhama produce the effect otherwise.
In this sense, the Municipal Government is convinced that the figures registered in the office of SEF de Alhama not reflect the number of alhameños who are unemployed because a few months ago has learned that to enroll in our office SEF municipality is not necessary to submit certificate of registration.
"Also the street information and data provided by the SEF I show that there are people from other municipalities who have registered here in the office of Alhama, because they think our people will have more chances of finding work, because the existence of large companies like El Pozo Food, PC components or plum, and perhaps the expectations generated at the time by the expected construction of Paramount Park, "said Moreno.
To show that this is so should verify the information possessed by the SEF of these unemployed jobseekers with information on the municipal register.
Therefore from the Department of Employment has requested the SEF these data.
On the one hand, the number of jobseekers transfers from other offices, which has already reached and on the other, the ratio of registered unemployed at the local office, including name and NIF thereof in order to contrast which of them are registered in Alhama and what not.
Another fact which casts doubt that these figures reflect the number of unemployed in Alhama existing data is the number of Social Security, as declared Sebastián Moreno.
This is the number of people who are discharged companies working in Alhama.
"Here is observed as from December 2011 there is a clear upward trend in the number of members of Social Security, which does not correspond in some months the number of unemployed. It seems strange that a November 30 have more than 369 members a year ago and this has not translated into a reduction in registered unemployment. "
Finally, on October 23 this year, the local development agent of the municipality issued a technical report which makes a comparison of the evolution of the recorded data of unemployed and employed with municipal census data, having arrived in this report the following conclusions:
"The population in Alhama working age, ie between 16 and 65 years, has continued to grow throughout this period, between 2007 and 2013, contrary to what happens in the whole region, where since 2011 the population will have a clear decline.
While between 2007 and 2012 the number of unemployed increased more than busy, even in the early years occupied descended, in 2013 the trend is reversed, increasing the number of employed and the unemployed descending.
The correlation between the inhabitants between 16 and 65 and the labor force is meaningless in 2012, increasing more active population registered voters, leading us to conclude that people residing in other municipalities, are entered in the SEF de Alhama office, probably for the best employment prospects may have.
(We must differentiate between the number of registered unemployed in the office of SEF de Alhama (data given monthly) and real unemployed who are registered in Alhama, which analyzed data would be a much lower figure.
Therefore, the Municipal Government through the Training and Employment mayor believes that "there are no objective facts which may explain the deterioration that has experienced in recent months the town of Alhama in the numbers of registered unemployment in a population with increasing economic activity, with a steady increase in the number of employed with a local employment plan that was among the first in the region to start with measures to promote employment-based municipal aid that have been copied by other municipalities annual conference of entrepreneurship, increase business incubators, improvement and expansion of our industrial park, etc. "
"At the moment there is already something that is obvious, as the technical report says is that we must differentiate between the number of registered unemployed in the office of SEF de Alhama and real unemployed who are registered in Alhama, which analyzed data would be a much lower figure, "Moreno stressed.
