EDDCaller.com is an auto-dial program that serves as a solution for individuals seeking contact with unemployment, paid family leave, and disability departments representatives by phone. This can be particularly handy in situations like Australia’s recent surge in unemployment rates, where an increasing number of people might need to reach out to these departments. The website offers a rapid means of getting through to a representative, dealing with issues such as EDD payment status or potentially upgrading from check to debit card service. Currently in Australia, the unemployment rate has escalated to an 18-month peak. According to November data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS), the rate has risen from 3.8% to 3.9% despite an increase in job growth. Offset by a rise in the participation rate, the number of employed Australians increased by 61,000 between October and November. However, even with growth in employment, the total number of hours worked showed a slight decline. As deemed by the ABS, to be counted towards the unemployment rate, one must actively be seeking employment. The current underemployment rate also showed an increase from 6.3% to 6.5% over the same period.
