Labour Force Surveys

Labour Force Surveys are statistical tools used by governments to gather information about the employment status of a country’s population. They measure how many people are employed, unemployed, or not participating in the labor force at a specific time. These surveys typically involve interviewing households to understand employment patterns, types of work, and unemployment causes. The data helps policymakers, economists, and analysts assess the health of the economy, identify job market trends, and develop informed labor and economic policies. They are essential for understanding employment dynamics and making data-driven decisions.
