Keywords:
Impact; Inflation; Unemployment; Statistics; WagesAbstract
In West Java, inflation has climbed by 3.53% in the last year, bringing the province's inflation rate to 5.81% in November 2025. In West Java, the unemployment rate is 5.98%, with the number of jobless expected to reach 9.56 million by September 2025. Wage inflation, which occurs when there is a high demand for labour and wages are not offered rapidly enough, can have an influence on unemployment. Workers, on the other hand, will not accept low salaries if labour demand is low and unemployment is high. In West Java, inflationary pressures such as wage inflation and others can have an influence on unemployment.
