This table presents employment by subsector of General Government: Central Government, State Government, Local Government, Social Security funds. The unit used is persons. Employment per person counts each agent as a unit, whether working full-time or part-time. The table shows total employment according to the domestic concept. The domestic concept refers to the measurement of economic activities based on a geographical approach rather than a nationality-based approach. Employees are residents and non-residents employed by the General Government.
