Embargoed to 0001 Monday April 9. File photo dated 15/07/09 of a person passing a Job Centre Plus as an extra 100,000 people will be without a job before the end of the summer and unemployment will not fall for 18 months, according to a new study. PRESS ASSOCIATION Photo. Issue date: Monday April 9, 2012. An analysis of jobless figures by the IPPR think tank showed that unemployment will not peak until at least September, with more people expected to join the dole queue in the coming months. The North West, London, Yorkshire and Humberside and the East of England will see the highest increases in unemployment, while the jobless total is predicted to fall in the West Midlands, Northern Ireland and the South West. The IPPR said it expected 50,000 more men and a similar number of women will become unemployed this year as public sector jobs continue to be cut, while over 40,000 of those becoming jobless will be under the age of 25.
