ANNEX A
Statistical Annex
Sources and definitionsMost of the statistics shown in these tables can also be found in two other (paper or
electronic) publication and data repository, as follows:
● the annual edition of OECD Labour Force Statistics, 1987-2007;
● OECD.Stat, the OECD’s central data warehouse (www.oecd.org/els/employment/data), which
contains both raw data and derived statistics.
These references, which include information on definitions, notes and sources used
by OECD countries, contain longer time series and more detailed data by age group, gender,
duration of unemployment, etc., than are shown in this annex.
Please note that the data on employment, unemployment and the labour force are not
necessarily the same as the series used for analyses and forecasting by the OECD
Economics Department and reproduced in Tables 0.2 and 0.3 of the “Recent Developments”
section at the beginning of this publication.
Interested users can refer to the on-line database (www.oecd.org/els/employment/data),
which contains data series on the labour market situation in OECD countries: population,
labour force, employment and unemployment disaggregated by gender and age,
educational attainment, employment status and sector of activity, participation and
unemployment rates, statistics on part-time employment and duration of unemployment,
job tenure, etc. The on-line database contains a number of additional series on labour
market performances and on features of the institutional and regulatory environment
affecting the functioning of labour markets. Among these are the following:
● annual hours of work data for comparisons of trends over time;
● distribution of gross earnings of full-time workers by earnings decile and by sex to derive
various measures of earnings dispersion;
● gross mean and median earnings of full-time workers by age group and gender;
● statutory minimum wages;
● public expenditure on labour market programmes and number of participants;
● trade union density rates in OECD countries.

Major breaks in series
Table A: Breaks in series have been adjusted to ensure that standardised unemploymentrates are consistent over time.
Tables B to E and Table G: Most of the breaks in series mentioned below occurred for anyof the following reasons: changes in survey design, survey questionnaire, survey frequencyand administration, revisions of data series based on updated population census results.These changes have affected the comparability over time of employment and/orunemployment levels and to a certain extent the ratios reported in the aforementionedtables:
● Introduction of a continuous survey: Austria (2003/2004), Belgium (1998/1999), CzechRepublic (1996/1997), Finland (1999/2000), France (2002/2003), Germany (2004/2005),Hungary (2002/2003), Iceland (2003/2004), Ireland (1996/1997/1998), Italy (2003/2004),Luxembourg (2002/2003), Norway (1995/1996), Poland (1998/1999/2000), Portugal (1997/1998),Slovak Republic (1997/1998), Spain (1998/1999).
● Redesign of labour force survey: Greece (1997/1998), Portugal (1997/1998), SlovakRepublic (1998/1999), Spain (2004/2005), Turkey (1999/2000 – half-yearly to quarterlyresults). New survey in Mexico since 2005 (Encuesta Nacional de Ocupación y Empleo – ENOE)with a different questionnaire from that of the previous survey.
● Change in the operational definition of unemployment regarding:
❖ active job search methods, in particular change from registration to contact with thepublic employment service: France (2002/2003), Spain (2000/2001).
❖ work availability criteria changed from reference week to two weeks after thereference week to be consistent with the operational definition in other EU countries:Sweden (2004/2005).
❖ persons on lay-off considered as employed instead of unemployed: Norway (2005/2006).
❖ duration of active job search changed from one week to four weeks: Korea (1999/2000).This change occurred in June 2005 and data were revised since 2000 to take intoaccount the new criteria.
❖ other minor changes: Australia (2000/2001).
● Changes in the questionnaire with impact on employment and unemploymentestimates: Spain (2004/2005), and unemployment estimates for Sweden (2004/2005) andNorway (2005/2006).
● Change from seasonal to calendar quarters: Slovak Republic (1999/2000) and the UnitedKingdom (2005/2006). However, there is no break in series between 2005 and 2006 for theUnited Kingdom as calendar-quarter based historical series are available since 1992.
● Introduction of new EU-harmonised questionnaire: Sweden (2004/2005).
● Change in lower age limit from 16 to 15 years: Norway (2005/2006). Moreover, since 2006,age is defined as completed years at the time of the reference week, instead ofcompleted years at the end of the year, as earlier.
● Inclusion of population controls based on census results in the estimation process:Spain (1995/1996), United Kingdom (revised series 1992), United States (1999/2000).
Further explanations on breaks in series and their impact on employment andunemployment levels and on ratios can be found at: www.oecd.org/employment/outlook.

Table A. Standardised unemployment rates in 27 OECD countries
As a percentage of civilian labour force
Note: In so far as possible, the data have been adjusted to ensure comparability over time and to conform to the guidelines of theInternational Labour Office. All series are benchmarked to labour-force-survey-based estimates. In countries with annual surveys,monthly estimates are obtained by interpolation/extrapolation and by incorporating trends in administrative data, where available. Theannual figures are then calculated by averaging the monthly estimates (for both unemployed and the labour force). For countries withmonthly or quarterly surveys, the annual estimates are obtained by averaging the monthly or quarterly estimates, respectively. Forseveral countries, the adjustment procedure used is similar to that of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor. For EUcountries, the procedures are similar to those used in deriving the Comparable Unemployment Rates of the Statistical Office of theEuropean Communities. Minor differences may appear mainly because of various methods of calculating and applying adjustmentfactors, and because EU estimates are based on the civilian labour force.

Table E. Incidence and composition of part-time employmenta (cont.)Percentages
Part-time employment as a proportion of total employment Women’s share in part-time employment
New series based on usual weekly hours worked available since 2001 replacing the old series based on weekly-actual hours.Part-time employment based on hours worked at all jobs.
Data are based on actual hours worked.
New series of part-time workers working less than 30 weekly actual hours available only since 2000. This series replaces previous series on part-time work of less than 35 weekly actual hours. Figures estimated for 1994 by backdating the series on part-time work of less than 30 hours prior to 2000 in line with the trend observed in the series of part-time work of less than 35 hours.
Data are for wage and salary workers only.

Table F. Average annual hours actually worked per person in employmenta (cont.)
The concept used is the total number of hours worked over the year divided by the average number of people in employment. The dataare intended for comparisons of trends over time; they are unsuitable for comparisons of the level of average annual hours of work for agiven year, because of differences in their sources. Part-time workers are covered as well as full-time workers.
The series on annual hours actually worked per person in total employment presented in this table for all 30 OECD countries are nowconsistent with the series retained for the calculation of productivity measures in the OECD Productivity database(www.oecd.org/statistics/productivity/compendium ). Hours actually worked per person in employment are according to National Accountsconcepts for 16 countries: Austria, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Korea, Norway, the SlovakRepublic, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and Turkey. Secretariat estimates for Belgium, Ireland, Luxembourg, the Netherlands (for totalemployment only) and Portugal for annual hours worked based on the European Labour Force Survey. For the remaining countries, thesources and methodologies are the same as those presented in the previous edition of the OECD Employment Outlook , as are estimatesreported for dependent employment for 26 countries.Country specific notes can be found at: www.oecd.org/employment/outlook.

Table G. Incidence of long-term unemployment among womena, b, c, d, e (cont.)As a percentage of female unemployment
c) Data are averages of monthly figures for Australia, Canada, Sweden and the United States, averages of quarterly figures for the Czech Republic,Hungary, Norway, New Zealand, Poland, the Slovak Republic and Spain, averages of semi annual figures for Turkey until 1999 and quarterly averagessince 2000. The reference period for the remaining countries is as follows (among EU countries it occasionally varies from year to year): Austria, March,and since 2004 all weeks of the first quarter; Belgium, April, and since 1999 all weeks of the second quarter; Denmark, April-May; Finland, autumn prior to1995, spring between 1995 and 1998, and averages of monthly figures since 1999; France, March and since 2003 all weeks of the first quarter; Germany,April, and since 2005 all weeks of the second quarter; Greece, March-July; Iceland, April; Ireland, May; Italy, April and since 2004 all weeks of the secondquarter; Japan, February; Luxembourg, April and since 2003 all weeks of the year; Mexico, April; the Netherlands, March-June; Portugal, February-April;Switzerland, second quarter; and the United Kingdom, March-May.d) Data refer to persons aged 15 and over in Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, the Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy,Japan, Luxembourg, Mexico, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Poland, Portugal, the Slovak Republic, Switzerland and Turkey; and aged 16 and over inIceland, Spain, the United Kingdom and the United States. Data for Finland refer to persons aged 15-64. Data for Hungary refer to persons aged 15-74, forNorway to persons aged 16-74 and for Sweden to persons aged 16-64.
a) While data from labour force surveys make international comparisons easier, compared to a mixture of survey and registration data, they are notperfect. Questionnaire wording and design, survey timing, differences across countries in the age groups covered, and other reasons mean that care isrequired in interpreting cross-country differences in levels.b) The duration of unemployment database maintained by the OECD Secretariat is composed of detailed duration categories disaggregated by age andsex. All totals are derived by adding each component. Thus, the total for men is derived by adding the number of unemployed men by each duration andage group category. Since published data are usually rounded to the nearest thousand, this method sometimes results in slight differences between thepercentages shown here and those that would be obtained using the available published figures.

Earnings dispersion is measured by the ratio of 9th to 1st deciles limits of earnings, 9th to 5th deciles and 5th to 1st deciles.Data refer to 1995 (instead of 1996) for Spain; to 1997 for Australia, Canada, Ireland and Norway; and to 2000 for Korea.They refer to 2002 (instead of 2006) for Norway and Spain; to 2004 for Poland and Sweden; and to 2005 for Finland,France, Germany and the Netherlands.The gender wage gap is calculated as the difference between median earnings of men and women relative to medianearnings of men. Data refer to 1997 (instead of 1996) for Australia, Canada and Ireland; and to 2000 for Austria. They referto 2004 (instead of 2006) for Poland and Sweden; and to 2005 for Finland, France, Germany and the Netherlands.The incidence of low pay refers to the share of workers earning less than two-thirds of median earnings.

Table I. Average annual wages in the total economy
Average annual wages per full-time equivalent dependent employee are obtained by dividing the National Accounts based total wage bill by the average number of employees in the total economy, which is then multiplied by the ratio of average usualweekly hours per full-time employee to average usually weekly hours for all employees. For more details, see: www.oecd.org/employment/outlook.Average annual wages are deflated by a price deflator for private final consumption expenditures.
Aggregates are computed on the basis of 2000 GDP weights expressed in 2000 purchasing power parities and include the countries shown.
