    Dataset

    By Social Protection and Labor Markets Division (VPS/SCL/SPL)
    The tension between productivity and labor costs in Latin America and the Caribbean remains one of the greatest challenges to creating formal employment. This note estimates the cost of salaried formal labor in 19 Latin American and Caribbean countries for 2023, updating two key indicators previously calculated by the IDB: the average non-wage cost of salaried labor (NWC) and the minimum cost of salaried labor (MCSL) and introducing a new measure: the cost of formalizing informal labor (CFIL).

This dataset includes the country-level tables and figures for the three indicators of the cost of...
