Data Set
Educational Outcomes: Inactivity rate of 25-34 year olds with below upper secondary education (%)
Description
Percentage of inactive people of 25-34 year-olds with below upper secondary education among all 25-34 year-olds with the same educational attainment level.
Inactive individuals are those who are neither employed nor unemployed during the reference week, i.e. individuals who are not looking for a job. The number of inactive individuals is calculated by subtracting the number of active people (labour force) from the total population.
