Why This Indicator Matters

Stable employment is essencial for the financial security and well-being of families. When job instability leads to income loss, it can disrupt daily life and strain relationships, making it harder for families to invest in their children's development. Over time, these challenges can hinder children's academic performance and reduce their opportunities for future success.
