Some 4.6 million Filipinos were unemployed, or a 10.0% unemployment rate was recorded in the second quarter of 2020, according to the Labor Force Survey (LFS) of the Philippine Statistical Authority (PSA). This is lower than the record high 17.7% (7.3 million Filipinos) estimated in April 2020 when the government-imposed Enhanced Community Quarantine (ECQ) due to COVID-19 pandemic was still in effect.
