About this data
With the aim of promoting international comparability, statistics presented on ILOSTAT are based on standard international definitions wherever feasible and may differ from official national figures. This series is based on the 13th ICLS definitions. For time series comparability, it includes countries that have implemented the 19th ICLS standards, for which data are also available in the Work Statistics -- 19th ICLS (WORK) database. The prime-age labour force participation rate is the labour force of persons aged 25 to 54 years divided by the population aged 25 to 54 years. The labour force is the sum of all persons of working age who are employed and those who are unemployed.
