Unemployment

This chapter looks at unemployment with data based on the labour force survey (LFS).

In the LFS, unemployed persons are persons who, in the week before the survey, were without work and available for work within the next two weeks, and had taken specific steps, in the preceding four weeks, to find work. It should be noted that as per Eurostat’s operational implementation, the upper age limit for classifying a person as unemployed is 74 years.
