3 Data sources and definitions Data Sources Most of the data used in this report originates from Eurostat, the Statistical Office of the European Communities. The main data sources used are: the European Community Labour Force Survey (LFS) the Eurostat Quarterly Labour Force Data (QLFD) series the European Community Household Panel (ECHP) the European Structure of Earnings Survey (SES) the Eurostat Labour Cost Survey (LCS) the Eurostat Harmonised Series on Unemployment the Annual Macroeconomic Database (AMECO) The European Community Labour Force Survey (LFS) is the EU s harmonised survey on labour market developments. The survey has been carried out since 1983 in the EU Members States, with some providing quarterly results from a continuous labour force survey, others conducting a single annual survey in the spring. If not mentioned otherwise, results based on the LFS refer to surveys conducted in the spring ( second quarter ) of each year. It also provides data for all Candidate Countries. The Quarterly Labour Force Data (QLFD) series is a harmonised, consistent series of quarterly employment statistics based on LFS, completed through estimates when quarterly data are not available. It covers all EU15 (for the period of 1991 to present) and all New Member States and Candidate Countries (since 1996 or later, depending on data availability). The QLFD consist of two series: 1) population, employment and unemployment, and 2) employment by economic activity and employment status. The first series is based mainly on the community LFS. Data cover the population living in private households only (collective households are excluded) and refer to the place of residence (national concept). They are broken down by gender and aggregate age group (15-24, 25-54, 55-64, 15-64). Unemployment data are also broken down by job search duration (less than 6 months, 6-11, 12-23, 24 or more). The second series is mainly based on the ESA-1995 national accounts employment data. Data cover all people employed in resident producer units (domestic concept), including persons living in collective households. They are broken down by sex, working time status (fulltime/part-time) and contract status (permanent/temporary). All key employment indicators with the exception of the full-time equivalent employment rate, the unemployment rates and the youth unemployment ratio - are based on the QLFD series. They represent yearly averages if not stated otherwise. Where the QLFD series does not provide the relevant breakdowns, the original LFS data were used in this report. The European Community Household Panel (ECHP) is an annual longitudal survey of a representative panel of households which was conducted for the period The longitudinal structure of the survey makes it possible to follow up and interview the same households and individuals over several consecutive years. At the time of publication of this report, data were available for all eight waves of the panel ( ) for all EU Member States except Austria ( ) and Finland ( ). Sweden did not take part in the ECHP, but provided some basic comparable micro data from the Swedish survey on living conditions in the ECHP user s database from 1997 onwards. There are important breaks in the data series for Germany, (1994/95), Luxembourg and the UK (1996/97), following variations in the sample definition. The survey covers a wide range of topics: income and living conditions, employment status, health, education, demographics and housing. It is based on a standardised questionnaire from Eurostat and subsequently adapted by national agencies. Data are accessible to the public by means of the ECHP user database. Results on quality in work and on transitions between labour market states or job characteristics are based on this database. The European Structure of Earnings Survey (SES) is a survey of enterprises which is conducted every four years as from 2002 (until then, it has been conducted on an irregular basis). The SES gives detailed and comparable data on the distribution of earnings and the individual characteristics of both employers and employees. It represents all activities with NACE C-O codes of the NACE Rev.1 classification of economic activities in the European Community; although the inclusion of categories M-N-O remained optional in The SES covers industry and services, but excludes agriculture, public administration and firms with less than 10 employees (optional). Information is also not gathered for the self-employed. 291

4 Employment in Europe 2005 In all Member States of the EU (except Malta), as well as Bulgaria and Romania, Iceland and Norway, a SES has been carried out in 2002, and the micro-data were delivered by countries. The data were made publicly available in April The following variables are available: gross earnings for a representative month, gross annual earnings in the reference year, and working-time. The SES aims at giving comparable (between Member States) European-level information on the structure and distribution of earnings, the individual characteristics of the employer and of the employee. The Eurostat Labour Cost Survey (LCS) is a business survey which is conducted every four years, covering all economic activities in sections C-K of the NACE Rev.1 classification and all enterprises with 10 or more employees. Some countries, notably the New Member States and Candidate Countries, additionally provide data for NACE sections L-O and for smaller enterprises. The survey contains detailed information on the level and structure of labour costs (hourly, monthly and annual), wages and salaries, working hours and employment at the national, regional and sectoral (NACE- 2) level and by establishment size. Labour Cost surveys have been carried out by the EU Member States for the years 1975, 1978, 1981, 1984, 1988, 1992, 1996, 2000 and Latest structural data from the Labour Cost Survey (LCS) are available for the year For the unemployment related indicators, the main source is the Eurostat Harmonised series on unemployment. This is a data set on unemployment collected by Eurostat comprising of yearly averages, quarterly and monthly data. It is based on LFS and register data on unemployment from national sources. Monthly data from national surveys or from registers of the public employment services are used to extrapolate the LFS data and to compile monthly unemployment estimates. This data set does not cover skills and long term unemployment for the analysis of which the LFS was used instead. Macroeconomic indicators are obtained from the Economic and Financial Affairs DG Annual Macroeconomic Database (AMECO) and are based on ESA 95 national accounts. The database comprises inter alia information on GDP, productivity, real unit labour costs and employment growth. The data is collected by Eurostat from the Member States National Statistical Offices. Besides regular weekly updates this database is revised twice a year in the framework of the Commission s Spring and Autumn Economic Forecasts. Other data sources: Furthermore, data from other International Organisations were used where appropriate, in particular the OECD (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development) Labour market statistics database, the OECD Main Industrial Indicators, the OECD Social expenditures database.
