Brazil Unemployment Rate (WEO)
ILO-modeled annual unemployment rate for Brazil from the IMF WEO. Two-tier labor market with high informality.
The Brazil Unemployment Rate (WEO) is currently 5.97%, last updated .
The OECD CLI condenses dozens of forward-looking inputs (order books, business surveys, term spreads, share prices) into a single index normalized to 100. Cross-country comparisons reveal whether a downturn is local or global, and the U.S. CLI has historically peaked 6-9 months before recessions. Paired with IMF WEO staff forecasts for real GDP growth and current account balances across 20 economies, the leading-indicator suite gives a more robust turning-point signal than any single country in isolation.
