Unemployment Rate n.s.a. reflects a percentage of unemployed workers in relation to Switzerland's total civilian labor force. No seasonal adjustment is applied to the indicator calculation. A decline in the unemployment rate is an indication of an increase in the purchasing power of the population, which can stimulate the national economy and thus have a positive effect on the Swiss franc quotes.
