New Estimates: Turkey - LFS - NSA
Thursday, 28 Jun 2018 17:36 ET
By Allyson Fry
Summary
June 2018 -- To facilitate international analysis, Moody's Analytics has estimated labor force, employment, unemployment and unemployment rate for Turkey in not seasonally adjusted terms (four new quarterly series from 2000).
Detail

Motivation: The national source performs benchmark revisions to its labor force survey data but does not revise their full history.

Response: For international consistency, we have estimated the labor force quartet (labor force, employment, unemployment and unemployment rate) at a quarterly frequency with an extended history in not seasonally adjusted (NSA) terms.

Properties: All four estimated series start at 2000Q1. Figures are thousands of individuals (Ths. #) or percent (%), not seasonally adjusted (NSA). Expect the series to be revised with each update of the historical series.

The estimates reside in the historical catalog (Turkey » Labor and Wages » Labor force survey » by Status » Quarterly » Moody's Analytics Estimates) and are:

  • XRLBFQ.ITUR = Labor force, (Ths. #)
  • XRLBEQ.ITUR = Employment, (Ths. #)
  • XRLBUQ.ITUR = Unemployment, (Ths. #)
  • XRLBRQ.ITUR = Unemployment rate, (%)

Method: Please see the background documentation in Mnemonic 411.
