Summary
April 2017 -- For Ecuador, Data Buffet now carries labor indices for employment, hours worked, and payroll (564 new monthly series from 2016).
Detail

The classification is UN ISIC Rev. 4, and the branch code is notated in the description metadata. Figures are indexed to 2015=100, not seasonally adjusted (NSA). The series start in January 2016.

The series reside in the historical catalog (Ecuador » Labor and Wages » Employment Index | Hours Worked Index | Payroll Index) and include, for example:

  • LWIEMTUM.IECU  = Labor: Employment - Total, (2015=100, NSA)
  • LWIHW11UM.IECU = Labor: Hours worked - Manufacture of beverages [11], (2015=100, NSA)
  • LWIHE13UM.IECU = Wages: Hourly earnings - Manufacture of textiles [13], (2015=100, NSA)

Because catalog locations are subject to change, the upper-right search box on DataBuffet.com provides a "find in catalog" mode that accepts a mnemonic.

Please be aware that:

  • This source (INEC) mandates a usage notice, which is notated in the source metadata of each series.
