La Encuesta Nacional de Ocupación y Empleo (ENOE) es la principal fuente de información sobre el mercado laboral mexicano al ofrecer datos mensuales y trimestrales de la fuerza de trabajo, la ocupación, la informalidad laboral, la subocupación y la desocupación. Constituye también el proyecto estadístico continuo más grande del país al proporcionar cifras nacionales y de cuatro tamaños de localidad, de cada una de las 32 entidades federativas y para un total de 39 ciudades.

A partir de la contingencia sanitaria, el levantamiento de información se suspendió en abril del 2020 y se reactivará hasta nuevo aviso, por lo que los resultados que tradicionalmente se publican de ENOE quedan suspendidos. Por otra parte, con la finalidad de ofrecer información relevante para monitorear la situación de la ocupación y empleo en el periodo de contingencia, el INEGI diseñó una estrategia mediante entrevistas telefónicas a través de la Encuesta Telefónica de Ocupación y Empleo (ETOE), considerada de carácter experimental.

Las cifras de la ETOE no son estrictamente comparables en su contextualización teórica con el diseño de la ENOE; sin embargo, resultan una aproximación a los indicadores que tradicionalmente capta la ENOE, por lo que su comparación podría resultar útil como medida de referencia. Ver ETOE
