  • Germany's employment rate reached a new high of approximately 46.1 million people in 2024, marking the highest level since reunification.
  • The workforce increased by 72,000 compared to 2023, although this growth is slower than in previous years.
  • Since 2006, employment has continuously risen, except for a dip during the pandemic year of 2020.
  • Growth was primarily fueled by immigration and higher domestic labor participation, mitigating the effects of demographic shifts.
  • The service sector alone contributed 75.5% to employment gains, while industrial and construction jobs saw declines.
