|a Sierra Leone is a relatively small economy with potential for jobs-rich growth. It is an extremely poor nation with substantial mineral, agricultural, and fishery resources. Nearly half of the working-age population engages in subsistence agriculture. Alluvial diamond mining remains the major source of hard currency earnings, accounting for nearly half of exports. However, the anticipated job-rich recovery is unlikely to be realized simply from the continued exploitation of the minerals underneath Sierra Leonean soil. This Jobs Diagnostic of Sierra Leone is a first, modest, but necessary, step to formulate that focused effort to create good jobs. It provides a better understanding of the job creation performance of the economy. It identifies the major problems that hold back the economy from creating good, formal-sector jobs that will lift people out of poverty and get them on the road to upward mobility. The Jobs Diagnostic begins with a look at the jobs creation performance of the economy. It then provides an examination of the labor supply-the state of the present and future workers and entrepreneurs. Finally, this diagnostic looks at job performance of firms-the potential employers and job creators
