* The estimates have been suppressed as they are deemed unreliable for practical purposes.
(1) The percentages show the associated levels expressed as a proportion of the total number of working-age people (including those who did not state their nationality or country of birth) working in each workforce sector.
(2) Men aged 16 to 64 and women aged 16 to 59.
(3) The industry sector Agriculture and Fishing has been grouped with Energy and Water due to small sample sizes.
(4) Excludes those whose nationality was not known.
(5) The A8 (Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Slovakia and Slovenia) joined the EU on 1 May 2004 and are included from 2004 Q3 onwards. Bulgaria and Romania joined the EU on 1 January 2007 and are included from 2007 Q1 onwards.
(6) Coefficients of Variation have been calculated for the latest period as an indication of the quality of the estimates, as described as follows:
Guide to Quality:
The Coefficient of Variation (CV) indicates the quality of an estimate, the smaller the CV value the higher the quality. The true value is likely to lie within +/- twice the CV—for example, for an estimate of 200 with a CV of 5 per cent. we would expect the population total to be within the range 180 to 220
Key Coefficient of Variation (CV) (%) Statistical robustness
* 0 = CV <5 Estimates are considered precise.
** 5 = CV <10 Estimates are considered reasonably precise.
*** 10 = CV < 20 Estimates are considered acceptable.
**** CV = 20 Estimates are considered too unreliable for practical purposes.
Note:
It should be noted that the aforementioned estimates exclude people in most types of communal establishment (e.g. hotels, boarding houses, hostels, mobile home sites etc.).
