Abstract

Implementing the Covid-19 vaccination program raises new hopes and optimism for Jakarta’s economic recovery. From mid-2020 to the first quarter of 2021, the economy in the capital city began to grow, marked by a considerable absorption of labor, especially in the formal sector. This absorption of workers causes the unemployment rate to drop significantly.

Jakarta has absorbed 250 thousand laborers from August 2020 to February 2021. The existing labor market has absorbed laborers from the additional people in the labor force, the shift from unemployed in the previous period due to COVID-19, and the shift from the non-labor force population.

Aligned with the increasing employed people, the number of employed people in the formal sector also increased by 268 thousand to 3,15 million people. The absorption of formal sector workers indicates a higher quality workforce performance.

The increase in number of employed people resulted in a decrease in the Unemployment Rate for the Capital City by 2.44 to 8.51 percent. This decrease is relatively the highest compared to 33 other provinces in Indonesia.
