Employment stats in LATAM
Latin America is the current big thing for local and global ecommerces who want to reach a market where ecommerce is predicted to increase 30% per year through 2025, thanks to a rising digital-savvy population, booming smartphone penetration, and local fintechs. Meanwhile, the advent of new alternative payment methods, whether locally or not, has profoundly revolutionized Latin Americans' relationship with payments by providing them with the most fundamental things: access and inclusion.
- According to Gallup's State of the Worldwide Workplace: 2021 Report, 45 percent of individuals in the region believe the pandemic has had a significant impact on their life, and the number of employees who have lost a job or business (31%) is comparable to the global average.
- Over half of individuals working in Latin America and the Caribbean during the epidemic have lost wages (57%) and worked fewer hours (57%) while 58 percent have temporarily ceased working.
COVID-19 not only put a burden on the region's formal economy, but it also put the informal sector – which accounts for almost half of all jobs in Latin America and the Caribbean – under pressure.
- According to the Center for Strategic and International Studies, real GDP shrinkage is expected to be approximately 8.1%, greater than in any other area of the world. However, unlike in other economic zones, the region's restricted development expectations for 2020, along with the economic and social sufferings caused by the virus, formed a perfect storm.
