COVID-19 And Labour Statistics

What is it?

The coronavirus pandemic has a large impact on our lives and our societies, but what is the impact and consequences for labour markets and the collection of labour statistics?

This page includes resources for data producers and data analysis including an impact overview, database of short-term indicators, guidance for data producers, etc.

The restrictions necessary to combat COVID-19 pose a huge obstacle to data collection operations, precisely when there is a massive increase in demand for information. We reached out to national data producers to understand the impacts of the pandemic on their statistical operations particularly in the domain of labour statistics.
