Thanks for cropped this mensurable nub. bestech upcoming project | New project gurgaon greens  The unemployment rate is very hard to keep up with. It is definitely not an accurate rate when they put it out. So many people are out of work and not collecting unemployment. http://polishedconcreteflooring.wordpress.com  I am a Spaniard, and I am always wondering something whenever I hear the commonplace that much of the unemployment rate in Spain responds indeed to shadow economy. There are two sources to measure unemployment in Spain: (a) benefit claimants at SEPE, and (b) workforce polls by INE (then fed to Eurostat). Figures from (a) are consistently lower than those from (b)

I do not deny the size of Spanish black economy. I also understand some benefit claimants would lie and say they are unemployed although they aren't, and their employers would not register them because thus they avoid paying the Social Security, etc. However... how does this explain the data coming from the survey respondents? Which reasons would they have to lie?
