Data on employment rates for those aged 15-64 with secondary education or higher (proportion of the working-age population with higher education) for countries around the world, along with a graph of the top countries

Abstract

Employment rate data shows the proportion of employed people in relation to the working-age population and can help gauge the health of the economy and the state of the labour market. In 2021 data, Peru recorded the highest employment rate at 74.7%. This could signal success in Peru’s economic growth and job creation. Over the past few decades, employment rates have varied widely across countries, but some countries have maintained high employment rates due to economic growth and policies. On the other hand, employment rates can be low in countries with economic recession or structural problems. A country with high employment rates, such as Peru, reflects efficient labor markets and strong economic activity, and sustainable growth strategies and labor market reforms are important to maintain this.

Employment rate for people aged 15-64, with secondary education or higher (proportion of the working-age population with tertiary education)

Looking at data from 1974 to 2021, Thailand’s employment rate peaked at 84.3% in 1989, and although it declined temporarily thereafter, it has now returned to a high level of 86.9%. The fluctuations reflect changes in Thailand’s economic growth and labor market. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, Thailand experienced rapid industrialization and economic development, resulting in a peak in employment rates. However, there was a temporary decline after that due to the Asian currency crisis, economic maturity, structural reforms, and other factors. Nevertheless, the recent recovery is evidence of Thailand’s economic stability and growth, and is likely a result of the government’s labour market policies and economic strategies. In particular, industrial diversification, improved educational standards, and increased employment opportunities have contributed to this, and efforts toward sustainable job creation are important.

Employment rate for those aged 15-64 with secondary education or higher (proportion of working-age population with tertiary education) (worldwide)

Based on data spanning 1974 to 2021, Thailand’s employment rate peaked at 84.3% in 1989. The high employment rate during this period is due to Thailand’s rapid economic growth and industrialization. The employment rate subsequently declined temporarily due to events such as the Asian financial crisis (1997), but Thailand has since recovered through economic diversification and policy reforms. The current employment rate of 86.9% is above its peak, indicating labor market stability and economic health. This is believed to be due to the Thai government’s labor market policies, investment in education, and industrial sophistication. To maintain high employment rates, sustainable growth strategies and labour market reforms are needed going forward.

Employment rate for people aged 15-64 with secondary education or higher (proportion of working-age population with tertiary education) (Worldwide, latest year)

According to 2021 data, Peru recorded the highest employment rate for the working-age population aged 15-64 at 74.7%, while the overall average was 61.3%. Peru’s high employment rate is a result of its growing economy and expanding labor market, particularly as it develops as an emerging market. The average of 61.3% reflects the difference between developed and developing countries, where different economic conditions and policies affect employment rates. In addition, the total figure of 981% is a combination of data from each country, and can be used as a reference when looking at the economic situations of different countries. Historically, employment rates have risen in some countries as a result of economic growth and policies, while in other countries they have stagnated due to economic problems or structural challenges in the labor market. Sustained growth strategies and policy flexibility are key to improving the labor market.

The maximum is 98.2% of Thailand, the average is 89.9%, and the total is 1.44k%

Employment rate for people aged 15-64, with secondary education or higher (percentage of working-age population with tertiary education) (region, latest year)

According to 2008 data, the employment rate for those aged 15-64 with secondary education or higher in the Central African Republic was 81.3%, reflecting the country’s unique situation. Although the country is working to improve its education system and create jobs, economic challenges and political instability continue to have an impact. While the figure of 81.3% is not very high compared to other countries, the fact that the average is the same suggests that quality and access to education play a significant role in employment rates, especially in developing countries. In many countries, wider access to education has contributed to expanding employment opportunities, but the mismatch between skills and job market needs remains a challenge. Going forward, there will be a need to review education policies and improve vocational training programs, and it is particularly important to improve skills to keep up with technological innovation. It is hoped that this data will be used to delve deeper into each country’s initiatives and economic situation.
