Features: This report is the second in the series "China Employment Strategy Report" by the Institute of Employment Research at Renmin University of China. With China's transition from a planned economy to a market economy, the labor market has exhibited a phenomenon where officially published employment and unemployment data do not align with the actual situation. This report analyzes and explains this phenomenon through methods such as literature review, historical analysis, in-depth interviews, the construction of econometric models, and calculations. The report systematically explores China's employment and unemployment measurement from aspects including theoretical analysis, historical summaries, system design, and empirical research. This report holds significant importance for deeply understanding the theoretical and practical issues of employment and unemployment in China's labor market, establishing a market-oriented employment and unemployment measurement system, and making scientific assessments of the employment and unemployment situation in China.
