Methodological note

Full time equivalent jobs are defined as the total number of hours worked divided by the mean annual hours worked in full time jobs in the economic territory.

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

The annual estimates of full time equivalent jobs correspond to the 2024 GDP Benchmark Revision and its supply, demand and income components. 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.

The annual series of the quarterly GDP 2024 Benchmark Revision, which replace those of the 2019 Benchmark Revision, have been compiled from the updating of statistical sources and estimation methods, within a methodologic framework promoted by Eurostat.

For further information about these statistics, you may check the methodology.
