The employment rate is an index reflecting the degree of employment of the labor force. Refers to the percentage of the employed population in the sum of the employed population and the unemployed population. It reflects the proportion of people who are actually used in all the labor forces that may participate in social labor. In a certain period of time, the more employed people or the less unemployed people, the higher the employment rate, and vice versa.
Calculating and studying the employment rate is essentially to improve the economic benefits of employment. In order to improve the economic benefits of employment, we must grasp two links at the same time: first, we must achieve full employment in socialism. From the microscopic point of view, this means that everyone who has the ability to work can engage in certain social labor and get corresponding labor remuneration or operating income; From a macro perspective, it means that there are neither idle means of production nor idle labor resources. Second, full and effective employment must be achieved to the maximum extent.
