Country: Japan
Given
Adult Population=N=108.12 millions
Employed=E=63.79 millions
Unemployed=U=3.20 millions
Labor Force=LF=E+U=63.79+3.20=66.99 millions
Unemployment rate=U/LF=3.20/66.99=4.78%
Labor force participation rate=LFPR=LF/N=66.99/108.12=61.96%
Country: France
Given
Labor Force=LF=25.98 millions
Unemployed=U=2.45 millions
Labor force participation rate=LFPR=56.40%
Adult Population=N=LF/LFPR=25.98/56.40%=46.06 millions
Employed=E=LF-U=25.98-2.45=23.53 millions
Unemployment rate=U/LF=2.45/25.98=9.43%
Country: Germany
Given
Adult Population=N=69.17 millions
Labor Force=LF=39.75 millions
Unemployment rate=u=8.08%
Unemployed=U=u*LF=8.08%*39.75=3.2118 million or say 3.21 million
Employed=E=LF-U=39.75-3.2118=36.5382 million or say 36.54 million
Labor force participation rate=LFPR=LF/N=39.75/69.17=57.47%
Country | Adult Population | Labor Force | Employed | Unemployed | Unemployment Rate | Labor Force Participation Rate |
