In 2018, the unemployment rate of women veterans was lower than that of male veterans or nonveterans of either gender, however these differences do not exceed the margins of error and therefore the unemployment rates of these four populations are not considered to be statistically different.
Key points include:
- Women veterans are more likely than male veterans to be employed.
- The highest unemployment rates are among 18-54 year olds currently enrolled in school.
- In 2018, there was an annual average of 22,000 unemployed 18-54 year old veterans enrolled in school. Among these, 23% were women veterans.
