Abstract: The so-called Beveridge curve illustrates the relation between the unemployment rate and the job vacancy rate. Regarding the euro area, the rise in the unemployment rate and the increase in recruitment difficulties since the 2008-2009 recession indicate a risk of a higher level of structural unemployment. At the national level, this risk is primarily located in Spain, but there are also negative signals appearing in France.
