14億人口「弱勢就業」
While the global economy has kept up a modest growth rate, the total number of unemployed people will likely remain high in 2018 – at above 192 million – and it will be harder to find a decent job, the International Labor Organization reports in “World Employment and Social Outlook: Trends 2018.”
國際勞工組織（ILO）公佈的《2018世界就業社會展望報告》指出，雖然全球經濟仍持續穩定成長，但2018年世界失業人口可能仍居高不下，預估失業人口將超過1億9千2百萬人，求職者今年想找份薪水不錯的工作恐怕更加困難。

The ILO report forecasts a worldwide unemployment rate of 5.5 percent this year, which is a marginal improvement on the 5.6 percent recorded last year, thanks to broad economic growth.
國際勞工組織報告預測，因普遍經濟成長，今年全球失業率為5.5％，較2018年5.6％略有改善。

But the report warns that the employment growth in emerging and developing economies is expected to fall short of labor force growth, although the labor situation in these countries has improved.
但該報告提出警告，雖然新興和開發中經濟體的勞動條件已有改善，預估就業成長將無法追上勞動人口成長的腳步。
emerging(adj.)新興的;崛起中的fall short of~未能符合…(期待、標準等)labor force勞動力
“Even though global unemployment has stabilized, decent work deficits remain widespread: the global economy is still not creating enough jobs,” ILO Director-General Guy Ryder said.
國際勞工組織秘書長賴德說：「即便全球失業情況已穩定下來，尊嚴勞動赤字依然普遍，全球經濟仍未創造出足夠就業機會。」
even though(conj.)即使;儘管=although…stabilize(v.)穩定下來、使穩定decent work 尊嚴勞動deficit(n.)赤字surplus(n.)盈餘
Ryder also expressed concern that vulnerable employment is on the rise.
賴德也對「弱勢就業」增加的現象表示擔憂。
vulnerable(adj.)脆弱的;易受影響的on the rise增加中=rising=increasing
He says that nearly 1.4 billion people are in vulnerable jobs, meaning that they work in difficult conditions for low wages with little security.
他指出全球近14億人口為弱勢就業者，他們的工作條件艱辛，低薪且幾乎沒有保障。
security(n.)保護(措施);(安全)保障
In developing countries, vulnerable employment affects three out of four workers.
在開發中國家，每4位勞工當中就有3位是弱勢就業者。
