This Kenya Jobs Diagnostic discusses Kenya’s demographic transition and its impact on the labor force and economic growth. It highlights the importance of creating a favorable environment for the young labor force to drive innovation and growth. However, if there is a mismatch between labor supply and good job opportunities, it can lead to unemployment, poverty, and social unrest. This jobs diagnostic first analyses the employment situation in Kenya, where the majority of the population works in the agriculture and services sectors. Agriculture has the lowest quality of employment. There is large heterogeneity in the quality of employment within the services sectors, with the education, health, and social security subsector having some of the best quality of employment, while the trade subsector has the second-lowest employment quality after agriculture. Gender disparities continue to exist in the labor market, with women earning less than men and facing challenges in terms of labor force participation and quality of jobs.
