In its latest update on global employment trends, the agency says projections of the number of unemployed people this year range from 210 million to nearly 240 million people. The report warns that 200 million poor workers are at risk of joining the ranks of people living on less than two dollars per day in the past three years.(2)The director general of the International Labor Organization Juan Somavia notes that some countries have taken measures to address the effects of the global crisis.
