Labour market situation for young people aged 15 to 27; region 2019, 2005-2018

This table provides information on the regional labour market situation of all young people aged 15 to 27 in the Netherlands who were registered in the Basic Persons Registration (BRP) on 1 October of the reference year. This indicates whether young people work, whether they go to school, whether they receive a benefit and whether they are registered as a jobseeker at the UWV Werkbedrijf. For young people in employment, a distinction is made between workers and the self-employed. This table also covers all social security benefits related to incapacity for work, sickness, unemployment or assistance. The total number of young people (15 to 27 years old) with a benefit within this table is higher than in other StatLine tables on social security. This is because the number of benefits is counted throughout the month instead of the situation being presented on the last Friday of the month. The reporting period shall be the month of October of the reference year. Whether a person goes to school is determined on the basis of an enrolment in the education funded by the government on 1 October of the reference year. The municipalities are divided according to the situation on 1 January 2019. In this table, the revised self-employed statistics are used in determining the number of workers in the years 2005-2010. In addition, data on persons working in international organisations will also be included in this table from the 2011 reference year. These changes may make it possible that the number of workers in this table differs from the number of workers in the forerunner of this table (see paragraph 3). Data available from 2005 to 2018. The figures refer to the situation in the month of October of the year in question. Status of the figures: The figures for the years 2005 to 2017 in this table are final. The figures for 2018 are provisional. Changes as of 12 March 2021: None, this table has been discontinued. When are new figures coming? No longer applicable.
