The European Union released key labour market statistics for 2024, showing an employment rate of 75.8 % and an unemployment rate of 5.9 %, the lowest level recorded since 2015. The data also indicates that graduates aged 20‑34 enjoyed an employment rate of 82.3 %. Additional figures reveal an average expected working life of 37.2 years and an average working week of 36 hours across the bloc. These statistics are part of an online publication that provides an overview of six main areas—labour market, employment, unemployment, education, household dimension, and youth. Complementary reports cover regional labour market data and migrant integration figures. The publication is available for download on the EU website.
