8 Notes to the appendix tables

• Definitions of the used concepts can be found on the home page of the Labour Force Survey under “Concepts and definitions”, and its pdf version.

• Small figures concerning no more than 4,000 persons that are presented in the tables should be viewed with reservations because they are based on a low number of respondents.

• Symbols used in the tables:

  Magnitude less than half of unit employed “0”

  Nil to report or data too uncertain for presentation “.”

• Due to rounding , the sums in the tables may not always agree.

• Data on education are from 2015. Data on education concerning 2016 will be available in late 2017.

• Data according to the socio-economic groups are not fully comparable with earlier data starting from 2011. From 2011 onwards , the socio-economic groups are based on the new Classification of Occupations 2010. Further information http://tilastokeskus.fi/til/tyti/tyti_2012-03-09_uut_001_en.html .

• The category “total” of data by industry and by employer sector includes those whose industrial status or employer sector is unknown.
