How this figure is calculated
Total weekly hours worked of employed persons (ILO modelled estimates) divided by GDP (current US$), matched on country and year. Neither publisher issues this ratio as a series; it is computed here from both.
Total weekly hours worked of employed persons (ILO modelled estimates) Γ· GDP (current US$)
Computed from
- Total weekly hours worked of employed persons International Labour Organization
- GDP Country official statistics, National Statistical Organizations and/or Central Banks
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.
