BAKU, Azerbaijan, October 13. Employment in
Georgia's non-profit institutions rose 3.1% year-on-year to 64,500
people in 2025, according to data released by Geostat on October 1,
with women accounting for 50.8% of the workforce.
According to Trend's calculations, the reported 3.1% growth rate
implies employment stood at approximately 62,560 people in 2024,
meaning the sector added roughly 1,940 people over the year.
Geostat reported that 64,200 of the sector's employees were hired
staff, up 3.3% from 2024. Trend's calculations indicate that this implies
approximately 62,150 hired employees a year earlier, an increase of
roughly 2,050.
Trend's
calculations reveal that the difference between total employment
and hired staff amounted to approximately 300 people, or 0.5% of
the sector's total employment, in 2025. This represents the portion
of the broader employment figure not included in the hired-staff
count reported by Geostat.
By gender, Trend's
calculations show that the 50.8% female share of the workforce
translates to approximately 32,766 women and 31,734 men, a
difference of roughly 1,032 people. By sector, education accounted
for the largest share of employment at 25.6%, followed by arts,
entertainment and recreation at 24.5%, water supply, sewerage,
