Produced for CIDOB's Spain in Focus. Unemployment benefits in Spain stop after 2 years. Ten percent of people unemployed for more than 2 years are under 25. They are people who started working befor... e the age of 23, often in lowly qualified jobs in the services and industry, but in particular in construction. This group, and the much larger group of long term unemployed between 25 and 34 (1 in 4 unemployed person is in this age group) is the one that is slowly decimated by returns of immigrants (most of the migrants that return or migrate forward to another country are under 35) and very incipient emigration of Spain-born youngsters.
