Foreign labour force
‘Employees in the region’ means all persons employed in the region, regardless of their place of residence. Those working in the area form a so-called working day population, the number of which can be seen as a measure of the number of jobs in the area. Every employed person is then thought to form a single job. In this way, even a person working part-time computationally forms a single workplace. If, for example, the work is carried out by a substitute for maternity leave, two jobs may be created. The employed labour force includes all persons aged 18 to 74 who were gainfully employed in the last week of the year and who were not unemployed as jobseekers at the employment office or performing military or non-military service. The information on employment is based on the data of the earnings-related pension and tax authorities.
Unemployment rate of foreigners
Unemployed persons aged 15 to 24 as a percentage of the labour force aged 18 to 24. An unemployed person is considered to be a jobseeker who is not in an employment relationship and is not employed full-time in business or in his/her own work within the meaning of Chapter 2 of the Unemployment Security Act and who is not a full-time student within the meaning of Chapter 2 of the Unemployment Security Act. An employee who is fully laid off or whose regular weekly working time is less than 4 hours is also considered to be unemployed. Full-time schoolchildren and students are also not counted as unemployed during the holidays. The original figures used in the calculation of the percentage are annual averages based on data for the different months of the year in question. The number of unemployed is based on data from the customer registers of the Employment and Economic Development Offices. The number of employees is obtained only about two years after the end of the statistical year from Statistics Finland's employment statistics.
