Obs:

On 11 January 2024, the table was updated with final figures for 2022. Please see the footnotes below for more information.
Statistics Norway does not publish figures where there is a risk of identifying individual data about persons or households. The `rounding up/down¿ method is used in these statistics to ensure this by rounding cells containing '1' or '2' to '0' or '3'. Final figures
On 11 January 2024, the table was updated with final figures for 2022 after information on self-employed persons in 2022 became available. Information on self-employed persons from 2021, the year prior to the reference year, was utilized in the previously published figures to improve the timeliness of the statistics. This is referred to as preliminary figures and entailed some greater uncertainty due to different years of measurement. For more information, please read the section 'Frequency and timeliness' under 'Administrative information' in 'About the statistics'.
Priority labour force status
In this statistic, one prioritised status is calculated for each individual's connection to the labour market, education, and benefits. For those enrolled in multiple activities/benefits simultaneously, the status with the highest priority is displayed (for employed persons, the top two priority statuses). This status is determined by a specific hierarchy. For instance, a person who is both in education and receiving disability pension would be classified as being in education for the purposes of these statistics. More information can be found under the 'Definitions' section in 'About the statistics'.
Increase in the number of 'Other employed'
The large increase from 2021 to 2022 in the number of 'Other employed' on level 3 of the priority labour force status variable is due to changes in the data source for recipients of sickness benefits. Read more about this in the section 'Comparability over time and space', under 'Production' in 'About the statistics'.
