The Live Register series gives a monthly breakdown of the number of people claiming Jobseeker's Benefit, Jobseeker's Allowance and other registrants as registered with the Department of Social and Family Affairs. Figures are published for each county and local social welfare office.
The table contains monthly Live Register information for those aged under 25 in each local social welfare office in County Limerick by gender, from January 2008 to December 2008 inclusive. It should be noted that the Live Register is not a definitive measure of unemployment as it includes part-time workers, and seasonal and casual workers entitled to Jobseeker's Benefit or Allowance.
