According to a report from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS), the open unemployment rate (TPT) in Indonesia in February 2026 reached 4.68%.

This means that among the entire national workforce, there are 4.68% who are unemployed.

Unemployment in this data represents a group of residents aged 15 and above who meet the following criteria:

Not working and are looking for a job;
Not working and are preparing for a new business;
Have been accepted for work/are ready to start a business, but have not yet started working/starting a business; or
Not working and feel it's impossible to get a job (despair).

If viewed based on education level, in the last three years, the highest unemployment rate has consistently been in the group of vocational high school graduates.

In February 2026, the TPT in the group of vocational high school graduates reached 7.74%.

While the TPT in the group of high school graduates reached 6.23%; and the TPT of Diploma IV/S1/S2/S3 graduates reached 6.13%.

The lowest TPT was actually in the group of elementary school graduates and below, which was 2.32%.

However, the TPT in February 2026 decreased compared to February 2025 in almost all levels of education, except for elementary school graduates and below, whose figures remained the same, as shown in the graph.
