*Data of labour force survey refer to the population aged 15–74. Source: labour force survey, HCSO.
aBudapest and Pest are planning and statistical regions according to the territorial code system in force since 1 January 2018, formerly county.
bSelf-employed: own-account worker, member of a partnership, member of co-operatives or unpaid family worker.
cBetween 2009 and 2020, persons who were recipients of child care benefits were not considered employed during their long-term absence from work. Considering persons who have not worked for more than 7 years, there is no classification of their labour market features until the end of 2020. Therefore, the staff data appearing in the above breakdown do not represent the total employment size during this period.
