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:
|
