Employment-to-population ratio KILM 2 Figure 6: Employment-to-Population ratio Source: MoLSA, Labour Market Information Bulletin, June 2011. According to figure 7 below, the employment-to-population ratio for the country is 71.5%. This means that, about 72% of the total population aged 15 years and over were working during the reference period. On the other hand, the employment-to-population ration in the rural areas is higher (76.6%) than in the urban areas (50.4%). Figure 7: Employment-to-Population ratio by area of residence, 2007 Source: MoLSA, Labour Market Information Bulletin, June 2011. As it can be seen from table 6 below, in 2007, the highest employment-to-population ratio was observed in Benishangul Gumuz region (78.5%), followed by Gambella (77.1%), Amhara (73.3%) and SNNP (73.3%). The lowest employment-to-population ratio was registered in Dire Dawa (51.1%). 11

There are issues relating to comparability of data across countries. Different age cut-offs – both the lower limit and upper bound – can lead to substantial measurement differences. Keeping these issues in mind, table 7 below reveals that the global estimate for the proportion of the working age population that is employed was 60.4% in 2007 (72.6% for men and 48.4% for women). It appears from table 7 that the Sub-Sahara Africa region registered the highest employment-topopulation ratios for the periods 1998-2008 followed by North Africa region and the world average. It is also interesting to notice from the same table that, the employment-to-population ratio for Ethiopia was the highest as compared with Sub-Saharan Africa, North Africa and the world average during the periods in point.
