Labour force survey, 2014

Slovenian Labour Force Survey 2014 is a Slovenian research with a tradition. The LFS measures the labour status and other characteristics of the population in a certain week of each quarter, by spreading the sample uniformly over all the weeks of the quarter. The survey provides data on size, structure and characteristics of active and inactive population. Data on personal income are added to the dataset (DURS register) – an average monthly income in either the whole year or a shorter period of time, if a person had worked for less than a year. Approximately 19 thousand individuals are selected to the sample in each quarter. Non-anonymised version of LFS microdata is available to researchers, onsite or by remote access. The survey was conducted as one of the surveys of the Eurostat Labour Force Survey which includes data from 28 Member States of the European Union, two Candidate Countries (Macedonia and Turkey) and three EFTA countries (Iceland, Norway and Switzerland). Comparability through time and space is possible as Eurostat distributes Labour Force Survey data of other participating countries. The Labour Force Survey 2014 includes an ad-hoc module which covers the topic of "Labour market situation of migrants and their immediate descendants".
