MADRID—Spain’s labour market remained resilient in October, official data showed on Wednesday, with joblessness edging lower and job creation surging in a month usually marked by rising unemployment at the end of the summer tourist season.
The hospitality sector led job creation, accounting for just over 25,000 of the 102,474 positions added over the month, Social Security Ministry data showed, continuing a hiring spree at bars and restaurants seen in the third quarter.
