Relative indicators

Contents

Methodological changes in the contents of activity status categories influence the value of relative indicators. With this in mind, one should view trends in individual relative indicators governed by comparable methodology.

3.1 Unemployment rates are calculated as the ratio of the unemployed (numerator) to total labour force (denominator).

3.1.1 General unemployment rate (ILO) is an indicator derived from LFSS results in compliance with international definitions and recommen-dations. Both the numerator and the denominator use surveyed persons according to their place of stay.


3.1.2 Specific unemployment rates are indicators which describe unemploy-ment in a certain social, age or other group of population.
