Methodological note

La comptabilitat nacional mesura l'aportació del treball a la producció a través del conjunt de llocs de treball d'una economia.

Un lloc de treball es defineix com un contracte explícit o implícit entre una persona i una unitat institucional resident per realitzar un treball, a canvi d'una remuneració durant un període definit o indefinit de temps.

La variable llocs de treball es diferencia de la dels ocupats (variable que quantifiquen les enquestes de població activa). Mentre que aquesta darrera mesura exclusivament persones, la primera inclou tots els llocs de treball que ocupa una mateixa persona (dos, tres, ...). Per tant, només si no hi hagués pluriocupació el nombre de llocs de treball i d'ocupats seria idèntic.

The variable Total includes jobs held by both wage-earners and self-employed.

The annual estimates of jobs correspond to the 2019 GDP Benchmark Revision. Moreover, the estimates for the last three years (t–1, t–2 and t–3) are provisional; in addition, those for the last two years (t–1 and t–2) are an advance of results basically produced with short-term information, whereas those for year t–3 are produced with structural information.

Aquestes estimacions de la Revisió Estadística 2019, que substitueixen les de la Base 2010, s'han elaborat a partir de l'actualització de les fonts estadístiques i dels mètodes d'estimació, dins d'un projecte de revisió impulsada per Eurostat i el Banc Central Europeu.
