Note: In so far as possible, the data have been adjusted to ensure comparability over time and to conform to the guidelines of the International Labour Of®ce. All series are benchmarked to labour-force-survey-based estimates. In countries with annual surveys, monthly estimates are obtained by interpolation/extrapolation and by incorporating trends in administrative data, where available. The annual ®gures are then calculated by averaging the monthly estimates (for both unemployed and the labour force). For countries with monthly or quarterly surveys, the annual estimates are obtained by averaging the monthly or quarterly estimates, respectively. For several countries, the adjustment procedure used is similar to that of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, US Department of Labor. For EU countries, the procedures are similar to those used in deriving the Comparable Unemployment Rates (CURs) of the Statistical Of®ce of the European Communities. Minor differences may appear mainly because of various methods of calculating and applying adjustment factors, and because EU estimates are based on the civilian labour force.

  • What Does Neets Mean and Why Is the Concept So Easily
    What does NEETs mean and why is the concept so easily misinterpreted? Technical Brief No.1 Introduction The share of youth which are neither in employment nor in education or training in the youth population (the so-called “NEET rate”) is a relatively new indicator, but one that is given increasing importance by international organizations and the media. The popularity of the “NEET” concept is associated with its assumed potential to address a broad array of vulnerabilities among youth, touching on issues of unemployment, early school leaving and labour market discouragement. These are all issues that warrant greater attention as young people continue to feel the aftermath of the economic crisis, particularly in advanced economies. From a little known indicator aimed at focusing attention on the issue of school drop-out among teenagers in the early 2000s, the indicator has gained enough weight to be proposed as the sole youth-specific target for the post-2015 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 8 to “Promote sustained, inclusive and sustainable economic growth, full and productive employment and decent work for all”. Within the Goal, youth are identified in two proposed targets: (i) by 2030 achieve full and productive employment and decent work for all women and men, including for young people and persons with disabilities, and equal pay for work of equal value, and (ii) by 2020 substantially reduce the proportion of youth not in employment, education or training (NEET). It is the author’s opinion that the NEET rate is an indicator that is widely misunderstood and therefore misinterpreted. The critique which follows is intended to point out some misconceptions so that the indicator can be framed around what it really measures, rather than what it does not.

Flows data make it possible, for example, to estimate the number and probability of workers moving between labour market states, say from unemployment to employment. Despite research, New Zealand’s official gross flows data are relatively neglected and almost entirely unused in published public and private sector economic commentaries, forecasting, modelling activities and policy debates. Using a framework of questions and answers, this paper considers selected aspects of New Zealand’s gross labour flows data as well as international comparisons.

Introduction Statistics on the flow of workers moving between employment, unemployment and non- participation provide some of the most interesting and useful insights into labour market outcomes. Research using flows data, rather than end-of-period stocks, began in the United States when the availability of matched household panel data made it possible to estimate the number of workers moving between labour market states, for example, from unemployment to employment.

  • Labour Force Survey 2014
    ILO Microdata Repository United Kingdom - Labour Force Survey 2014 Report generated on: March 23, 2018 Visit our data catalog at: http://www.ilo.org/microdata/index.php 1 United Kingdom - Labour Force Survey 2014 Overview Identification ID NUMBER GBR_2014_LFS_v01_M_ILO Version VERSION DESCRIPTION Version 01 Overview ABSTRACT The Labour Force Survey (LFS) is a unique source of information using international definitions of employment and unemployment and economic inactivity, together with a wide range of related topics such as occupation, training, hours of work and personal characteristics of household members aged 16 years and over. It is used to inform social, economic and employment policy. The LFS was first conducted biennially from 1973, then between 1984 and 1991 the survey was carried out annually and consisted of a quarterly survey conducted throughout the year and a 'boost' survey in the spring quarter (data were then collected seasonally). From 1992 quarterly data were made available, with a quarterly sample size approximately equivalent to that of the previous annual data. The survey then became known as the Quarterly Labour Force Survey (QLFS). From December 1994, data gathering for Northern Ireland moved to a full quarterly cycle to match the rest of the country, so the QLFS then covered the whole of the UK (though some additional annual Northern Ireland LFS datasets are also held at the UK Data Archive). Further information on the background to the QLFS may be found in the documentation. A labour force survey is an inquiry directed to households designed to obtain information on the labour market and related issues by means of personal interviews.
