• Sommario/riassunto: Published every two years since 1999, the KILM is a collection of 18 key indicators of the labour market, ranging from employment and variables relating to employment (status, sector, hours, etc.), the lack of work, the conditions of work (wages, compensation costs, working poverty, etc.) and the characteristics of jobseekers, (education, labour productivity). Taken together, the indicators give a strong foundation from which to begin addressing key questions related to productive employment and decent work.
