About Statistics Publications & Documents Information by Topic

In Hungary the work for creating mobility indicators, which could serve as a suitable basis for an international comparison, started after the last meeting of the Focus group in Paris. After that - as a participant on that meeting - I did my best to convince some colleagues in the HSO that the database of the Labour Force Survey would be suitable for this purpose and we must try it. Thanks to their co-operative spirit it has worked. First, of course, the statisticians referred to a sample which is rather small and changing from time to time and the fact that there were some changes in classification of qualification. But after several discussions the work started and has been carried out for the year 1998.

Now we can present some very first results for your information. The paper of Mr. Akerblom from Finland helped us very much providing a practical guideline on how to create mobility indicators from LFS.
