# Research Employment Data

Employment is both an economic indicator and a social measure. Unemployment rates, labor force participation, and employment-to-population ratios tell you about the health of an economy, the tightness of the labor market, and the potential for wage-driven inflation. These metrics influence everything from central bank policy to consumer spending to political outcomes.

The indicator skill retrieves employment and labor market data for any country, while compare_countries lets you benchmark labor markets across nations. You can track how unemployment has evolved through economic cycles, compare labor force participation across cultures, and identify countries with tight or loose labor markets.

This data serves human resources teams planning international hiring, economists studying labor market dynamics, investors gauging consumer spending potential, and policy researchers evaluating employment programs. Employment data is one of the most closely watched economic indicators because it directly affects household income, spending, and economic growth.
