About this data
Trade in employment by characteristics adds a dimension to labour market indicators published in TiM database and is designed to complement OECD's Trade in Value Added (TiVA) indicators (TiVA web page). Estimates of employment embodied in foreign final demand (or in gross exports) can reveal the extent to which a country's workforce depends on its integration into the global economy. TiM indicators by characteristics are calculated using the OECD's Inter-Country Input-Output (ICIO) Tables, (ICIO web page), together with recent estimates of employment by industrial activity from official sources. • TiM web page. • TiM by characteristics: documentation • ReadMe TiM by characteristics • Contact: icio-tiva.contact@oecd.org
