How is this data produced?

The Labour Force Survey (LFS) provides statistics on the labour force, employment and unemployment at national and state level, as well as across urban and rural areas. Data from this survey is published on a monthly, quarterly and annual basis. A comprehensive and systematic approach in data collection and processing has been maintained over a period of time in order to obtain comparable time series statistics.

What caveats I should bear in mind when using this data?

The sum of each category may not always equal to the totals shown in related tables because of independent rounding to one decimal place. However, the differences are not obvious.

Publication(s) using this data
