The COVID-19 pandemic impacted Indonesia's economy, including its labor conditions. On a quarterly basis, the number of job advertisements in the second and third quarters of 2020 was significantly lower than in previous quarters. In the second quarter of 2020, there were 13,600 job advertisements, a 60% decrease from the 34,000 in the first quarter of 2020.
Then, in the third quarter of 2020, it decreased by 16% to 11,400 job advertisements. The Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS) also recorded that 29 million people were affected by COVID-19 as of August 2020. This included 2.56 million who lost their jobs, 1.77 million who were temporarily unemployed, 760 million who stopped working, and 24 million who experienced reduced working hours. *(Note: 760 million is likely a typo and should be 760 thousand)*
