How this figure is calculated
Labor force, total divided by Land area (sq. km), matched on country and year. Neither publisher issues this ratio as a series; it is computed here from both.
Labor force, total ÷ Land area (sq. km)
Computed from
- Labor force, total International Labour Organization (ILO), type: estimates based on external database
- Land area FAOSTAT, Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO)
Statizoid computes this series; the underlying measurements belong to the publishers named above. The arithmetic is applied to every country and year where both inputs report, and nothing is estimated unless the page says so.
