Share of employed persons

Employed persons are those who performed income-generating work for at least one hour during the reference week/day, as well as those who have such work but were temporarily absent due to illness, vacation, paid leave, etc. The figures include all employees in municipalities, including those who only have additional work there. The share is calculated by dividing the number of employed persons within a service area by the total number of employed persons in the municipality, and multiplying by one hundred. Definitions of what is included in each service area can be found in the explanatory notes for the variable "Function".
