According to data revealed by the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE) last Friday, August 12, it is estimated that the state of Santa Catarina (SC) is one of the states with the highest number of employed people in all of Brazil and job openings. The unemployment rate has been reduced to around 3.9% and is one of the lowest in the national scale, making the southern region one of the hiring hubs in the private sector.
More than 65.8% of the entire working-age population (capable of working in the market) is employed with a formal work contract or active contracts, even if under a legal entity. This was the highest value ever reached by any Brazilian state. The data was collected through the Continuous National Household Sample Survey (Pnad-C) regarding the second quarter of the year 2022.
