description | The aim of developing labour accounts is to provide a complete and coherent picture of the labour market and organize the employment statistics in each country. The most important variables and components of labour accounts are employment, working hours and income from employment. Employment account is one of the most important components of labour accounts. In this paper, based on the recommendations of the World Labour Organization and the experience of countries such as the Netherlands, Australia, Italy, Denmark and Switzerland, for the first time, the employment account in Iran is provided. The main objective is to derive a comprehensive estimate of total employment in the country. To achieve this goal, employment statistics from regular household surveys are linked to the employment data from establishment surveys. The resulting data are reconciled based on a bottom-up approach until a coherent picture of the size and characteristics of employment emerge. The statistics obtained from labour accounts should also provide improved and more consistent data for macro-economic analysis of the labour market, in particular, the analysis of productivity and the relationship between employment and economic growth. Because in 2011, a number of statistical sources, including labour force survey, population and housing census and numerous establishment surveys have been implemented with the aim of achieving input-output tables, that year is considered as the base year for calculating labour accounts in Iran. |
