Vulnerable employment (SL.EMP.VULN.ZS, modelled ILO estimate) is own-account and contributing-family workers as a share of employment. Latest: 9.30% in 2025.
These jobs usually lack formal contracts and social insurance. A high share is not the same as a low wage, but it is the usual companion of informal work. From 1991 to 2025 (35 years): latest 9.30% (2025), previous year 9.43% (2024); low 6.55% (1995), high 10.28% (2007).
