The General Federation of Yemeni Chambers of Commerce and Industry has released a new analytical economic report titled:

"Employment in Yemen: Recent Statistics and Future Trends."

The report was prepared by Ms. Rana Al-gawani, Head of the Research and Studies Center at the Federation. It provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of the Yemeni labor market and the profound transformations it has undergone since the outbreak of the crisis, with a focus on structural challenges and untapped opportunities in promising sectors.

Key highlights of the report include:

* Record-high unemployment rates among youth and women

* Expansion of the informal sector and decline in formal employment opportunities

* Weak economic participation of women and lack of effective empowerment policies

* Growing employment opportunities in promising sectors such as:

  - Agriculture and food industries

  - Health and social services

- Renewable energy

- Digital economy and freelance work

  - Entrepreneurship and logistics services

The report also offers practical recommendations to revitalize the labor market through training, integration into value chains, and investment in human capital.
