Source: Labour Market Survey, Manpower Research & Statistics Department, MOM

Before 2006, the Labour Market Survey covers private sector establishments each with at least 25 employees. From 2006 onwards, the survey also covers the public sector.

Data are rounded to the nearest 100. Hence, they may not add up to the total.

Annual figures are the simple averages of the figures obtained at quarterly intervals.

Data may not be strictly comparable due to the various versions of SSIC coding.
