According to the latest labor force statistics (i.e. provisional figures for August - October 2024) released by the Census and Statistics Department (C&SD), the seasonally adjusted unemployment rate increased from 3.0% in July - September 2024 to 3.1% in August - October 2024, while the market had forecast it to remain at 3%. The underemployment rate decreased from 1.2% in July - September 2024 to 1.1% in August - October 2024.
Commenting on the latest unemployment figures, the Secretary for Labor and Welfare, Chris Sun, said the seasonally adjusted unemployment rate stayed low at 3.1% in August - October 2024, though edging up by 0.1 percentage point from July - September 2024. The underemployment rate declined slightly by 0.1 percentage point to 1.1%. The labor force and total employment decreased slightly, by 2,200 and 3,100 to 3.8279 million and 3.7071 million respectively. The number of unemployed persons increased slightly by 800 to 120,700.
Among the different sectors, more notable increases in the unemployment rates were seen in the cleaning and similar activities sector; the arts, entertainment and recreation sector; and the transportation sector. On the other hand, the unemployment rates of the retail sector and the food and beverage service activities sector eased back slightly. The unemployment rate of the construction sector stayed unchanged.
Looking ahead, Sun said the labor market should remain tight in the near term alongside the continued economic growth, though the employment situation may continue to vary across sectors depending on their business performances.
