How this figure is calculated
Labour force (ILO modelled estimates) (15+) divided by Population, total, matched on country and year. Neither publisher issues this ratio as a series; it is computed here from both.
Labour force (ILO modelled estimates) (15+) ÷ Population, total
Computed from
- Labour force (ILO modelled estimates) International Labour Organization
- Population, total World Population Prospects, United Nations (UN)
Statizoid computes this series; the underlying measurements belong to the publishers named above. The arithmetic is applied to every country and year where both inputs report, and nothing is estimated unless the page says so.
