The unemployment rate in South Africa is typically calculated using the following formula:
Unemployment Rate = (Number of unemployed individuals / Labor force) x 100
The labor force consists of all individuals who are either employed or actively seeking employment. The number of unemployed individuals refers to those individuals who are not currently employed but are actively looking for work.
This formula calculates the unemployment rate as a percentage by dividing the number of unemployed individuals by the labor force and multiplying the result by 100. The resulting figure represents the proportion of the labor force that is unemployed.
