The Central Statistics Agency (BPS) recorded that more than half, or 55.8%, of Indonesian youth worked in the service sector in 2021. The percentage of urban youth working in the service sector was higher than that of rural youth, namely 66.5% compared to 41.27%.
Based on income, the majority, or 31.73%, of youth working in the service sector earned between 1 million and less than 2 million rupiah per month in 2021. Furthermore, 25.19% of youth earned less than 1 million rupiah per month.
Additionally, 22.48% of youth working in the service sector earned more than 3 million rupiah per month. Meanwhile, 20.6% of youth earned between 2 million and less than 3 million rupiah per month from their work in the service sector.
BPS also noted that, in general, more than 40% of youth working in rural areas earned low incomes, while in urban areas, less than a quarter of working youth earned low incomes.
This needs to be a concern for the government because this condition will impact the future of youth, such as making them vulnerable to the trap of poverty.
