ATHENS – Greece's unemployment rate continues its downward trend, reaching a new low of 8.2% in the third quarter of 2025, as reported in updated data on December 4, 2025. This marks a significant improvement from the 8.6% unemployment rate recorded in the second quarter of the same year.

The continuous decrease in unemployment rate reflects Greece's progressing economic recovery efforts and an improving job market, a positive shift in comparison to historical high unemployment rates the country has faced in the past. Analysts suggest that this reduction in unemployment could be attributed to several promising sectors, including tourism and digital innovation, which have garnered increased investment and international interest.

Economists remain cautiously optimistic, noting that this trending improvement positions the country well as it moves towards sustained economic growth. However, they emphasize the importance of maintaining momentum in employment policies and investments in key sectors to ensure long-term stability and further reduction in unemployment across the nation.
