The employment rate, the ratio between the total employed and the working-age population, stood at 63.1% for July-September 2025, exceeding by 1.0 percentage point the rate observed in the third quarter of 2024.\n\nWhen analyzing the demographic composition of the 119,965 new net employed, it is observed that 82.2% (98,626 jobs) of them corresponds to the female population, mainly concentrated in the 25 to 39 age group, while men contributed the remaining 17.8% (21,339 jobs).\n\nFurthermore, it is evident that, within the additional 119,965 net employed, 68,327 people have university studies, while 52,358 have a secondary education level. These results reflect that the generation of jobs in these last twelve months was mainly concentrated in women and people with higher education.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Santo Domingo,.- The Central Bank stated this Monday that there are 5,149,829 people employed in the country, for a year-on-year increase of 2.4%, equivalent to 119,965 net employed compared to the July-September 2024 period.
