The labor participation rate among the total population aged between 15 and 64 in Egypt increased by 0.9 percentage points (+1.98 percent) in 2022. In total, the labor participation rate amounted to 46.47 percent in 2022. The labor force participation rate refers to the share of the population aged 15 years and over who are economically active. Unemployed people actively searching for work are included, whereas the long-term unemployed (economically inactive) are not. It is calculated by dividing the total number of workers aged 15 and over by the total population aged 15 and over.
The labor force participation rate is the proportion of the population ages 15-64 that is economically active: all people who supply labor for the production of goods and services during a specified period.
