In 2025, Spain ranked first by unemployment rate among the 5 countries presented in the ranking. Spain's rate amounted to 10.51 percent, while France and Italy, the second and third countries, had records amounting to 7.61 percent and 6.05 percent, respectively.

This indicator describes the unemployment rate, which can be defined by either the national definition, the ILO harmonized definition, or the OECD harmonized definition. The latter defines it as the number of unemployed people divided by the total labor force.
