This section looks at the International Labour Orgainsation (ILO) participation rate of men and women. The Participation Rate is the number of persons in the labour force expressed as a percentage of the total population aged 15 or over. This differs from the Employment Rate which is the number of employed aged 15 to 64 expressed as a percentage of the total population aged 15 to 64. The data comes from the Labour Force Survey.
