New Estimates: Philippines - Employment by industry
Tuesday, 06 Aug 2019 13:23 ET
By Allyson Fry
Summary
August 2019 -- Moody's Analytics now estimates employment by industry for national Philippines (26 new quarterly series from 1956).
Detail

Motivation: Our national source, the Philippine Statistics Authority, reports employment share by industry, quarterly, not seasonally adjusted, with ragged start dates.

Response: For international consistency and analytic convenience, Moody's Analytics now estimates employment levels by industry, quarterly, seasonally adjusted, for 19 industries, with a uniform start date across industries. We also produce the three A*3 aggregates plus our three special industry aggregates (retail, warehouse-using, office-using).

Properties

  • Industry classification: PSOC 2012
  • Measurement: Thousands of persons (Ths. #)
  • Adjustment: Seasonally adjusted (SA)
  • Geo coverage: Country
  • Start dates:
    • Total: 1956Q2
    • Industries: 2000Q4

The series reside in the historical catalog (Philippines » Labor and wages » Employment » Moody's Analytics Estimated) and include, for example: 

  • RETOTQ.IPHL = Employment - Total, (Ths. #, SA)
  • RECNQ.IPHL  = Construction
  • REREQ.IPHL  = Real estate activities

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. 

Method: Please refer to the background documentation in Mnemonic 411.
