In the second quarter of 2024, the unemployment rate among Black South Africans was 36.9 percent, marking a year-on-year change of 0.8 percent compared to the second quarter of 2023. On the other hand, the unemployment rate among white South Africans was 7.9 percent in the second quarter of 2024, with a 0.5 percent year-on-year change. Unemployment prevalent among youth and women The unemployment rate is the share of the labor force population that is unemployed, while the labor force includes individuals who are employed as well as those who are unemployed but looking for work. South Africa is struggling to absorb its youth into the job market. For instance, the unemployment rate among young South Africans aged 15-24 years reached a staggering 60.7 percent in the second quarter of 2023. Furthermore, women had higher unemployment rates than men. Since the start of 2016, the unemployment rate of women has been consistently more than that of men, reaching close to 36 percent compared to 30 percent, respectively. A new minimum wage and most paying jobs      In South Africa, a new minimum hourly wage went into effect on March 1, 2022. The minimum salary reached 23.19 South African rand per hour (1.44 U.S. dollars per hour), up from 21.69 South African rand per hour (1.35 U.S. dollars per hour) in 2021. In addition, the preponderance of employed South Africans worked between 40 and 45 hours weekly in 2021. Individuals holding Executive Management and Change Management jobs were the highest paid in the country, with salaries averaging 74,000 U.S. dollars per year.

South Africa is expected to register the highest unemployment rate in Africa in 2024, with around ** percent of the country's labor force being unemployed. Djibouti and Eswatini followed, with unemployment reaching roughly ** percent and ** percent, respectively. On the other hand, the lowest unemployment rates in Africa were in Niger and Burundi. The continent’s average stood at roughly ***** percent in the same year. Large shares of youth among the unemployed Due to several educational, socio-demographic, and economic factors, the young population is more likely to face unemployment in most regions of the world. In 2024, the youth unemployment rate in Africa was projected at around ** percent. The situation was particularly critical in certain countries. In 2022, Djibouti recorded a youth unemployment rate of almost ** percent, the highest rate on the continent. South Africa followed, with around ** percent of the young labor force being unemployed. Wide disparities in female unemployment Women are another demographic group often facing high unemployment. In Africa, the female unemployment rate stood at roughly ***** percent in 2023, compared to *** percent among men. The average female unemployment on the continent was not particularly high. However, there were significant disparities among African countries. Djibouti and South Africa topped the ranking once again in 2022, with female unemployment rates of around ** percent and ** percent, respectively. In contrast, Niger, Burundi, and Chad were far below Africa’s average, as only roughly *** percent or lower of the women in the labor force were unemployed.

Women and Unemployment was a study designed to study the effects of unemployment on women. The researcher examined the psychological and physical consequences of job loss for women. Specifically, the study focused on what working means to women, the effects of women's unemployment on family life and children, the effects of job loss on women's health, the meaning of work in women's lives, how the women lost their jobs, the support they had around their job loss, and, if applicable, how they found new employment. In presenting and exploring the varied and unique consequences of unemployment for women, the study also aimed to dispel the belief that job loss has identical effects for men and women. The sample consisted of 124 women from a large northeastern metropolitan area who had experienced involuntary unemployment for at least six weeks within the past two years. The sample was cross-sectional in terms of age, ethnicity, socio-economic status, educational level and occupation. The sample of women completing the initial survey questionnaires was 77.6% Caucasian, 13.8% African-American, 2.6% Latina, and 0.9% Asian-American. The majority of the women were mothers. An initial survey questionnaire was given to assess background information, previous work history and cursory unemployment experience. Personal interviews were conducted with a subsample of 30 women selected to represent the larger population of unemployed women in order to obtain detailed information regarding the unemployment experience. The interview consisted of sections on background information, work history, the job loss, health and social support, the job search, and the woman's future outlook. Interviewed participants also completed a booklet with the CES-D scale to measure depression and the Anxiety Scale of the MAACL as a measure of anxiety. The Murray Archive holds additional analogue materials for this study (paper questionnaires for all subjects as well as interview schedules, respondent booklets, transcripts and audiotapes of interviews).

In 2022, the unemployment rate in Southern Africa was 32.2 percent, the highest rate on the African continent. Female unemployment in the Southern region reached around 34 percent, compared to a rate of 31 percent among men.

In the same year, the average rate in Africa was eight percent.

As of the second quarter of 2024, nearly 49 percent of the employed population in Morocco worked in the service sector. Services were the main sector of employment in urban areas, accounting for around 67.1 percent of the total employment. On the other hand, in rural regions, the agricultural, forestry, and fishery sectors employed the highest share of working population, approximately 64 percent. This contrast indicates the disparity in development across different regions in the country.
Unemployment among the youth
Youth unemployment remains a challenge in the country, standing at 22.61 in 2023. This divide is more pronounced in the 15-24 years age group, where the unemployment rate reached 38.2 percent in 2023. These figures highlight the lack of job opportunities for young individuals entering the workforce, and the need for investments in job creation initiatives. Unemployment gender disparity in North Africa In the North African region, women are facing significantly higher unemployment rates than men. In fact, around 20.5 percent of women in the region were expected to be unemployed as of 2024, compared to 8.39 percent for men. This suggests difficulties accessing the labor market for North African women and calls for a region-wide improvement in the sector.
