Vulnerable Employment 2013

Report year 2013·Data year 2013

Vulnerable employment (% of total employment)·Higher is worse — rank 1 is worst affected·Published by International Labour Organization (ILO)

35 reference years (1991–2025), covering 182 to 187 countries, produced by the ILO and pulled through the World Bank’s indicator API (SL.EMP.VULN.ZS). Own-account and contributing family workers as a share of all employment — the jobs least likely to carry a formal arrangement, social protection or any safety net, and the readable half of the self-employment figure. ⚠ IT MEASURES THE TERMS OF WORK, NOT THE ABSENCE OF IT: a country can have almost everyone in work and most of them here, which is why it says something neither the unemployment rate nor the employment ratio can. ⚠ MODELLED, not measured. ⚠ The ILO ranks nobody, so no rank is stored; the POSITION on the statistics page is derived here by ordering the score and labelled as ours.
