Employed Residents Aged 15 Years And Over By Occupation And Age Group, (June), Annual

Data from Jan 2000 to Dec 2024Updated 3 days ago

SINGSTAT (Singapore Department of Statistics)

Source: MINISTRY OF MANPOWER

Data Last Updated: 28/01/2025

Update Frequency: Annual

Footnotes: Residents comprise Singapore citizens and permanent residents. Based on mid-year Labour Force Survey except for Census of Population 2000 and General Household Survey 2005. Data from year 2020 are classified based on Singapore Standard Occupational Classification (SSOC) 2020. Data before year 2020 which were coded based on earlier versions of the SSOC were mapped to SSOC 2020 as far as possible to facilitate data comparability. Data are not available for 2006 as the level of occupational detail collected in 2006 did not support mapping.
