Mexico Unemployment Rate

The unemployment rate in Mexico inched lower to 2.7% in June of 2025 from 2.8% in the corresponding period of the previous month. It was the lowest jobless rate in the period since 2002, tied with the result from two years ago, to suggest the Mexican labor market remains robust at a relative level. Unemployment fell by 21,091 from the previous year to 1,661,477. In turn, net employment rose by 1,219,579 to 60,169,565. Despite the improvements in both metrics of the labor market, an increase in the Mexican population drove the labor force participation rate to remain unchanged at 59.8%.
