Labour market

Indonesia · Underemployment rate (Indonesia)

Share of employed people who work under 35 hours a week and are looking for or would accept more work, measured by the national labour force survey (Sakernas, August) of BPS, Indonesia's statistics office. With low ILO unemployment and a large informal economy, it is one of the measures the Indonesian press follows to judge the quality of jobs. It does not count underpaid full-time workers or informal work as such.
