3. Statistical presentation

  • 3.1. Data description

  • The section 'LFS series - detailed quarterly survey results' reports detailed quarterly results going beyond the EU-LFS main aggregates, which have a separate data domain and some methodological differences.

    This data collection covers all main labour market characteristics, i.e. the total population, labour force and labour force participation rates, employment, employment rates, self-employed, employees, temporary employment, full-time and part-time employment, population in employment having a second job, working time, total unemployment and persons outside labour force.

    General information on the EU-LFS can be found in the ESMS page for Employment and unemployment (LFS).

    Detailed information on the main features, the legal basis, the methodology and the data as well as on the historical development of the EU-LFS is available on the EU-LFS (Statistics Explained) webpage.

  • 3.2. Classification system

  • Please refer to the ESMS page for Employment and unemployment (LFS).

  • 3.3. Coverage - sector

  • As a general rule the EU-LFS covers all economic sectors.

  • 3.4. Statistical concepts and definitions

  • The EU-LFS provides population estimates for the main labour market characteristics, such as employment, unemployment, people outside the labour force, hours of work, occupation, economic activity and other labour related variables, as well as important socio-demographic characteristics, such as sex, age, education, household characteristics and regions of residence.

    The definitions of employment and unemployment, as well as other survey characteristics follow the definitions and recommendations of the International Labour Organisation (ILO). The definitions are clearly stated in the Article 2 of the aforementioned Commission Implementing Regulation 2019/2240.

  • 17.1. Data revision - policy

  • The general Eurostat revision policy applies to this domain.

  • 17.2. Data revision - practice

  • All reported errors (once validated) result in corrections of the disseminated data. Reported errors that are deemed to be significant are corrected in the disseminated data as soon as the correct data have been validated. Corrections for other errors are carried out in connection with the regular scheduled data dissemination.

    Data are only published once they are deemed to be sufficiently complete for all data providers contributing to the aggregate.

    Whenever new data are provided and validated, the already disseminated data are updated with next regular production cycle. New data are only used to update disseminated data in the case of reported errors, or in exceptional situations, such as after new population estimates have been defined based on a population census.

    For information on EU-LFS data revisions, please consult EU-LFS (Statistics Explained) - Data and publication.
