We present a new edition of the Labor Monitor, featuring updated data on personnel demand as of May 2025, along with a focused analysis on e-commerce and its remarkable growth — positioning this sector as one of the most dynamic in Uruguay’s labor market.
Part 1: Updated data on labor demand
Personnel demand remained virtually stable compared to April, showing a minimal increase of just 0.8%. A stronger rebound in demand was expected, especially considering that April had shown a seasonal decline due to Easter Week holidays. The absence of a significant recovery aligns with business expectation indicators and economic projections, which since April have reflected growing caution among employers amid a tense and uncertain international outlook. Locally, a cooler business climate suggests a likely economic slowdown in the second half of the year.
Part 2: E-commerce, labor demand, and the “boom” of the digital economy in Uruguay
