Tordesillas has reported a significant increase in business activity and a reduction in unemployment for August. According to data from the Servicio Público de Empleo Estatal, the number of unemployed individuals in the municipality fell to 360, representing an 8.19% unemployment rate. This constitutes a 9.55% decrease compared to the same period in the previous year, contrasting with a 0.15% increase in Castilla y León and a 2.91% decrease nationally.
