Czech jobless rate remains at 3.5 percent

Unemployment in Czechia stood at 3.5 percent in October, the same level it was at the previous month, according to official figures released on Tuesday. The number of people out of work remained at around 256,000. It is still lower than the number of unfilled positions, which last month was over 297,000.

Experts say they expect joblessness to rise in the coming months as some manufacturers reduce production.
