¹	The lower age limit is 15 years, and the age is stipulated at the point of time when interviewing is taken place and not at the end of the year as previously done in the surveys. As from 2006 the estimation procedure is also revised.
²	Due to an omission in the data collection, the employment figures have become too high, approximately 12 000, in the 2nd quarter 2008. This affects the age group 15-19 and the totals.
