Invest. climate;human capital, labour supply internat. comparison 1990-2011

Table explanation


In this table international comparisions are made of the current and the potential supply of labour and of the labour costs. The composition of the current supply of labour is represented by a breakdown of levels of education of working persons (primary, secondary and tertiary education). The level of education of the potential supply of labour is indicated by the performance of students and the proportion of unemployed persons. The level of education is an indicator for human capital allocated to production. Labour costs are expressed in costs per hour and the unit labour costs.

Note:
Comparable definitions are used to compare the figures presented internationally. The definitions sometimes differ from definitions used by Statistics Netherlands. The figures in this table could differ from Dutch figures presented elsewhere on the website of Statistics Netherlands.

Description topics

Performance 15-year old students
Average performance of 15-year-old students in the field of mathematics, science and reading. Average score. OECD average = 500. The OECD score is an average weighted pro rata of the number of 15-year-old students per country. The 2003 figures for the Netherlands are not fully reliable because the sample size was too small.
