Developing Statistics as a Tool for Labour Improvement.

The ILO Department of Statistics has launched a new statistics portal that makes it easy to access data about a wide range of labour-related topics, by country or by subject, in English, French and Spanish. It is a one-stop shop to obtain labour data and learn about labour statistics. ILOSTAT provides bulk downloads for those who need large datasets and detailed cross-tabulations. It is also an invaluable tool for data producers, who can find data collection guidance and other resources.

What is the unemployment rate in your country? What proportion of children are engaged in economic activity, what is the average earning of employees, what is the proportion of women in management? The answers to these and many more questions can be found on the site.

Statistical information can be accessed by country, or by key topics
