The adult employment-to-population in 2022 was higher in Iceland than any other Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) country, at 83.3 percent. The Netherlands ranked second with nearly 82 percent. On the other hand, it was lowest in Türkiye. The average for the entire bloc was 67.8. The employment-to-population ratio is a valuable addition to the unemployment rate because it includes the entire adult population, whereas the unemployment rate only considers those who are working or actively seeking a job, that is, only the workforce.
