Sona Harutiunyan says over 70 per cent of the unemployed in Armenia are women, whereas the bulk of the offered employment requires manual workers. Besides, Sona Harutiunyan says the official index of unemployment is not real, since not all the unemployed people are registered. Besides, the representative of the Ministry of Social Security said the rate of unemployment would go extremely high if everyone working abroad returned.
