29.04.202607:00:00UTC+00Turkey’s Jobless Rate Eases to 8.1% in March, Extending Downward Trend

Turkey’s unemployment rate declined to 8.1% in March 2026, down from 8.5% in February, according to data updated on 29 April 2026. The latest reading signals a continued softening in joblessness on a month-over-month basis.

The March figure follows February’s 8.5% rate, which itself reflected the labor market conditions compared with the month before. Under the current comparison framework, the “actual” March result measures the change versus February, while the “previous” data point captures February’s change relative to January, highlighting an ongoing improvement in employment dynamics.

The month-over-month drop from 8.5% to 8.1% suggests that Turkey’s labor market continued to gain traction into the end of the first quarter of 2026, with incremental progress in reducing unemployment over consecutive months.
