Key Characteristics of Resident Labour Force

Updated 6 months ago

Data are for mid-year.
Residents refer to Singapore Citizens and Permanent Residents.
Data for 1995, 2000 and 2005 are not available as the Comprehensive Labour Force Survey was not conducted in these years due to the conduct of the Population Census 2000 and General Household Surveys 1995 and 2005 by the Singapore Department of Statistics.
2007 data have been adjusted based on latest revised population estimates from the Singapore Department of Statistics to facilitate comparisons with 2008 onwards.
Data on median gross monthly income from work pertain to full-time employed residents excluding full-time National Servicemen. Before 2009, full-time employment refers to employment where the normal hours of work is at least 30 hours per week. From 2009 onwards, it refers to employment where the normal hours of work is at least 35 hours per week.
