Description
Employment estimates are based on filled jobs in economically significant businesses. If a person has a paid job in the reference week they are considered employed. This includes employees even if they are absent from work (e.g. due to sickness, being on leave, on strike or temporary lay-off, etc.) whether paid or not. This also includes all managerial or executive staff (e.g. Chief Executive).
