The trend highlights ongoing labor‑market integration issues for migrants and raises questions about the adequacy of current support measures despite the regularization program. Spanish Ministry of Inclusion, Social Security and Migration; foreign‑worker population; Social Security administration; labor‑market analysts. Authorities will monitor upcoming monthly unemployment releases and may refine integration policies or benefit eligibility criteria based on the data. The June data show a modest rise in joblessness among foreigners, even as the government reports that roughly 160,000 recently regularized migrants have joined the Social Security system.

The figure suggests that integration challenges persist alongside the regularization effort.
