New Estimates: Malaysia - Employment by industry
Tuesday, 04 Jun 2019 16:11 ET
By Kelli Johnson
Summary
June 2019 -- Moody's Analytics now estimates employment by industry for Malaysia (28 new quarterly series from 1982).
Detail

Motivation: Our national source, Department of Statistics Malaysia, reports employment by industry at a quarterly frequency, but for only 12 industries, and with limited history (starting at 2015Q4).

Response: For international consistency, Moody's Analytics now estimates employment at a quarterly frequency, for 21 industries plus our special industry aggregates (retail, warehouse-using, office-using), with extended history.

Properties:

  • Industry classification: MSIC 2008, an adaptation of UN ISIC Rev. 4
  • Measurement: Thousands of persons (Ths. #)
  • Adjustment: Seasonally adjusted (SA)
  • Geo coverage: Country
  • Native frequency: Quarterly
  • Start date: 1982Q1
  • Additivity: Across industries

The series reside in the historical catalog (Malaysia » Labor and Wages » Employment by Industry » Moody's Analytics Estimated) and include, for example:

  RETOTQ.IMYS = Employment - Total, (Ths. #, SA)
  REAEQ.IMYS = Arts; entertainment and recreation
  REWARQ.IMYS = Warehouse-using industries

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.
