The unemployment rates peaked for both genders in the third quarter of 2020 due to the outbreak of the coronavirus (COVID-19). During that quarter, 5.6 percent of men and 5.1 percent females were unemployed in Norway. In the last quarter of 2022, the rates had dropped to 3.2 percent unemployed men and 3.1 percent unemployed women.
