Labour costs in the metals and electrical industry

With effect from 1 December 2007, CBS has the series of indices of the labour cost development in metal and electrical engineering industry (LKM) ended. Published data, from the start of the series in the 4th quarter from 2004 to the 3 rd quarter of 2006, remain at StatLine available. The series is no longer updated. The reason for termination is in quality and continuity problems arising, inter alia, from the transition in 2006 to another source for labour and wage statistics. Possible alternatives to the LKM index are indices of the sets of collective wages and contractual labour costs per hour. These series are also available on Statline.
