Administrative unemployment rate for women

The administrative unemployment rate reflects the proportion of people in the labour force who are unemployed, looking for a job and available for employment.It measures the imbalance between labour supply and demand. The 2011 Census data are the most recent data we currently have at the sub-communal level. The population of the Census is not strictly defined in the same way as that used for other labour market indicators.This can impact the results even if the orders of magnitude remain the same. Note:From 2011, the indicators are calculated on the basis of the Steunpunt WSE estimates, marked by two series breaks: in 2017, the method of estimating non-taxable students is changed and employees of international organisations were integrated into employed workers In 2019, the source that provides the number of outgoing border workers changes, leading to a decrease in employment, thus also in activity, and an increase in the unemployment rate that can be significant in some border municipalities.
