Notes:
n1/ Corresponds to the quarterly average ending in the indicated month.
n2/ Persons in the labor force who participated in the production of economic goods and services (worked) for at least one hour during the reference week. This includes persons who, despite having employment, did not work during the reference week due to special circumstances, provided they have assurance of returning to their job, continue receiving pay, and their absence does not exceed one month.
n3/ Persons in the labor force who were unemployed during the reference week, were available to participate in the production of economic goods and services, and actively sought employment but did not find it, despite taking specific job-search actions during the preceding four weeks. Additionally, persons who did not work during the week prior to the interview are also considered unemployed.
n4/ Percentage of employed population relative to the working-age population (15 years and older).
n5/ Percentage of unemployed individuals and employed individuals seeking job changes relative to the labor force.
n6/ Percentage that measures the proportion of the labour force that is either unemployed or employed but actively seeking another job. It reflects the overall pressure on the labour market from those who are willing to change or obtain employment.
n7/ Percentage of employed persons working fewer than 40 hours per week who want and are available to work more hours than their current job allows.
n8/ With the release of figures for the first quarter of 2014, INEC adjusted the expansion factors starting from 2013 to align the results with population projections based on the 2011 Population and Housing Census. For more information, please refer to the methodological note published by INEC at the provided link.
n9/ Erratum. Applicable to figures from the Continuous Employment Survey (CES) for the May, June, and July 2022 quarter, downloaded or obtained digitally prior to September 30, 2022. This is due to corrections in weighting factors for May-June-July 2022 estimates. For further details, please refer to the document “Erratum. CES. Year-over-year comparison tables, sampling errors, and data series MJJ 2022” published by INEC at the provided link.
