Please note that starting this year, we are sending a reduced questionnaire, focusing exclusively on indicators not related to the labour force. These indicators are typically derived from sources other than household surveys.

We understand the importance of household survey data and will continue processing the household survey microdata files to produce numerous indicators. Currently, 164 Member States have already shared their microdata.

To ensure the availability of labour force data for your country in ILOSTAT, ILO outputs, the SDG global database, and beyond, we strongly encourage your country to share household survey microdata with us if it has not been done so already.

Details on the benefits of microdata sharing are provided in the document "Unlocking the Power of Microdata: Enhancing International Comparability and Data Availability in ILOSTAT and Beyond."
