New Estimates: Thailand - LFS
Thursday, 13 Apr 2017 09:37 ET
By Andrew Pak
Summary
April 2017 -- Moody's Analytics has estimated the four standard quarterly labor force status measures for Thailand (four new quarterly series, from 1985).
Detail

Motivation: Our national source, the Bank of Thailand, reports its labor force survey (LFS) at a monthly frequency and with limited history (from January 2001).

Response: For international consistency, we have created quarterly versions of the indicators and extended their history by synthesizing data from the Bank of Thailand and the International Monetary Fund (IMF).

Properties:

  • Measurement: Thousands of persons (Ths. #) or percent (%)
  • Adjustment: Seasonally adjusted (SA)
  • Frequency: Quarterly
  • Start date: 1985Q1
  • Geo coverage: Nation

The series reside in the historical catalog (Thailand » Labor and Wages » Labor force status » Moody's Analytics Estimated) and are:

  • RLBFQ.ITHA = Labor force, (Ths., SA)
  • RLBEQ.ITHA = Employed, (Ths., SA)
  • RLBUQ.ITHA = Unemployed, (Ths., SA)
  • RLBFQ.ITHA = Unemployment rate, (%, SA)

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.
