29.05.202615:00:00UTC+00Colombia’s Urban Jobless Rate Falls to 8.8% in April, Extending Labor Market Gains

Colombia’s urban unemployment rate declined to 8.8% in April 2026, easing from 9.4% in March 2026, according to the latest data updated on 29 May 2026. The drop signals a continued improvement in urban labor market conditions after the March reading marked a higher point for the year.

The 0.6 percentage point decrease suggests that hiring momentum in Colombia’s cities strengthened over the month, with more urban residents finding work or re-entering the labor force successfully. While the data provided do not break down sector performance or labor participation, the shift from 9.4% to 8.8% points to a firmer employment backdrop in key urban centers during April.

With the April figures now confirmed, markets and policymakers will watch upcoming releases closely to see whether this downward trend in urban unemployment can be sustained in the months ahead, potentially easing pressure on social conditions and supporting domestic demand in Colombia’s main cities.
