Kuala Lumpur: The labour market increased by 2.4 per cent in the second quarter (Q2) of 2023, with a record of 16.73 million persons despite slower growth in employment and a smaller decline in unemployed persons, according to the Department of Statistics Malaysia (DOSM) Friday.

Chief Statistician Datuk Seri Dr Mohd Uzir Mahidin said the increase was mainly contributed by the 2.8 per cent increment in employed persons, accounting for 16.15 million persons in Q2 2023. He said the number of unemployed persons declined by 9.5 percent year-on-year to 581,400 persons, recording the national unemployment rate at 3.5 per cent during the quarter.
