The study aimed to identify the components of the labor market and its future trends, besides knowing the size of the demand for labor in the public and private sectors, in addition to identify the problem of unemployment in the Sudan during the study period.

Accordingly, the research problem can be summed up through the following questions: What are the main reasons that led to the disruption of the labor market in the Sudan? What are the techniques or methods in order to address this phenomenon, and to reduce its negative impact on the Sudanese economy? The study used the deductive approach, using tables that help to analyze the phenomenon under study.
