Norway's Jobless Rate Hits 2.6 Percent

OSLO, Norway — Norway's unemployment rate was 2.6 percent in June, compared with 2.5 percent in May and 3.4 percent in June 2005, the state employment service announced Thursday. The agency, Aetat, said the latest figure marked a decline in unemployment when adjusted for seasonal variations.

"Unemployment normally increases from May to June. The increase this year was somewhat lower than normal," a news release said.
