In 2008, the employment rate in the EU for the age group 20 to 64 peaked at 70.3%, after a period of steady increase. In the following years, employment trends reversed as a result of the unfavourable effect of the economic crisis on the European labour market. In 2009, the employment rate fell to 69.0% and has remained consistently low since 2010. In 2014, the rate slightly increased to 69.2%, marking a deviation of 5.8 percentage points from the Europe 2020 target of increasing the employment rate of the population aged 20 to 64 to at least 75%.
