The bank report indicated that in the last four years some 733 thousand 600 jobs were created, adding that, of almost 173 thousand created this year, only some 29 thousand 442 are informal, which means that 83 percent goes to the formal sector.
Accordingly, the total informal employment rate dropped to 55.3 percent, the lowest since the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020.
