Employment in Suriname is in private and publicsectors. Employment ranges from administration and governmental functions to teaching, medicine, and accounting. A significant portion of the population is employed in mineral mining, such as bauxite, aluminum oxide [alumina], oil, etc. Business and agriculture are important employers as well.

According to 2004 statistics, 78 percent of the labor force is in the services sector. Industry employs 14 percent. Agriculture accounts for 8 percent.

According to 2005 statistics, the gross domestic product [GDP] by sector was composed of 10.8 percent agriculture, 24.4 percent industry, and 64.8 percent services.
