=====Key Insights=====
The report assesses global labour market trends and imbalances following the pandemic recovery. Despite a decrease in global unemployment to its lowest level since the pandemic began, significant challenges remain, including a cost-of-living crisis driven by rising energy and food prices. Labour force participation has largely rebounded, but disparities persist, particularly affecting women and youth. The report highlights that while employment growth was positive in 2023, projections for 2024 indicate a slowdown, with unemployment rates stabilizing. Major decent work deficits, including gender participation gaps, working poverty, and informality, are expected to continue. The analysis covers regional differences and the impact of various factors on labour market dynamics, emphasizing the need for coordinated policy responses to address these challenges and promote social justice.  \\
