Latest Updates
Russia's unemployment rate remained stable at a historic low of 3% in August 2023, in line with market forecasts. The historically low reading comes with Russia's economy struggling through a severe worker shortage due to the war in Ukraine, mobilization, and emigration. The number of unemployed individuals dropped by 8 thousand from the previous month to 2.268 million, and the officially registered unemployed fell to 0.569 million in August from 0.586 million the month before. In August 2022, the jobless rate was higher at 3.8%.
