The employment rate refers to the number of people actually in employment (employed labour force) to the population aged 15-64, as an annual average. It gives an idea of the effective participation in employment of a population that could potentially work. See also: - on our website 'Labour Market Statistics', The Employment Accounts and the IWEPS Working Paper No 13. Note: From 2011, the indicators are calculated on the basis of Steunpunt Werk estimates, which showed a break in series in 2017: the methodology for estimating non-taxable students is changed and employees of international organisations have been included in the employed assets. In 2019, the source used by Steunpunt Werk for the number of outgoing cross-border commuters changes, which leads to a drop in employment, and therefore also in activity, and an increase in the unemployment rate, which can be significant in some border municipalities. As a result of this problem and the delay in Steunpunt Werk’s estimates due to the increasing difficulty of obtaining sufficiently detailed data on employed workers, from 2019 the indicators are calculated on the basis of provisional estimates from IWEPS.

These data are taken from the ANNUAL datasets from the Labour Force Survey (LFS) carried out by the Office for National Statistics (ONS), providing labour market data back to 1996 for the NUTS2 areas in Wales, and back to 2001 for the local authorities in Wales. The availability of local authority data is dependent upon on an enhanced sample (around 350 per cent larger) for the annual LFS, which commenced in 2001. For years labelled 1996 to 2004 in this dataset, the actual periods covered are the 12 months running from March in the year given to February in the following year (e.g. 2001 = 1 March 2001 to 28 February 2002). Since 2004, the annual data have been produced on a rolling annual basis, updated every three months, and the dataset is now referred to as the Annual Population Survey (APS). The rolling annual averages are on a calendar basis with the first rolling annual average presented here covering the period 1 January 2004 to 31 December 2004, followed by data covering the period 1 April 2004 to 31 March 2005, with rolling quarterly updates applied thereafter. Note therefore that the consecutive rolling annual averages overlap by nine months, and there is also a two-month overlap between the last period presented on the former March to February basis, and the first period on the new basis. The population can be broken down into economically active and economically inactive populations. The economically active population is made up of persons in employment, and persons unemployed according to the International Labour Organisation (ILO) definition. This report allows the user to access these data. Although each measure is available for different population bases, there is an official standard population base used for each of the measures, as follows. Population aged 16 and over: Economic activity level, Employment level, ILO unemployment level Population aged 16-64: Economic inactivity level 16-64 population is used as the base for economic inactivity. By excluding persons of pensionable age who are generally retired and therefore economically inactive, this gives a more appropriate measure of workforce inactivity. Rates for each of the above measures are also calculated in a standard manner and are available in the dataset. With the exception of the ILO unemployment rate, each rate is defined in terms of the shares of population that fall into each category. The ILO unemployment rate is defined as ILO unemployed persons as a percentage of the economically active population. Although each rate is available for the different population bases, there is an official standard population base used for each of the rates, as follows. Percentage of population aged 16-64: Economic activity, Employment,. Economic inactivity Percentage of economically active population aged 16 and over: ILO unemployment
