This position does not sit well with the fact that just under 3% of the working population is on zero-hour contracts, not discharging a full working week, which in a large proportion of cases means living partly on employment benefits.

So, in reality, nearly 7% of the employable population is wholey or partially unemployed.

Also, most decent jobs receive in excess of 1000 applications for each vacant role.
