About the source

ILOSTAT is the ILO's central statistics database, the leading global source for labour statistics. It compiles indicators across employment, unemployment, wages, working time, child labour, informal economy, social protection, occupational injuries, and SDG decent work targets — drawing on national labour force surveys, household income surveys, establishment surveys, and administrative records. Coverage spans 200+ economies, with the ILO's Department of Statistics responsible for harmonisation.

Methodology

Data pulled directly from the ILOSTAT REST API at https://rplumber.ilo.org/data/indicator?id=SDG_B821_NOC_RT and filtered to Europe ISO3 country codes. ILOSTAT harmonises raw survey microdata using ICLS (International Conference of Labour Statisticians) definitions; sources are flagged in the source.label column for traceability.

Data quality & caveats

• Data is annual frequency. Some indicators also publish monthly or quarterly series — those are not included here.
• When an indicator has multiple sources for the same country×year, the ILO-selected 'best source' is used.
• Disaggregation columns (sex, classif1, classif2) are non-null only when the indicator publishes that breakdown.

Usage

from datasets import load_dataset

ds = load_dataset("electricsheepeurope/europe-ilo-sdg-b821-noc-rt-sdg-indicator-8-2-1-annual-growth-rate-of-output-p")
df = ds["train"].to_pandas()
print(df.head())

Filter to one country

germany = df[df["ref_area"] == "DEU"]

Time-series for a single indicator

sample = (df[df["indicator"] == "SDG_B821_NOC_RT"]
          .sort_values("time"))
sample.plot(x="time", y="obs_value", title="SDG_B821_NOC_RT")

Pivot to country × year matrix

matrix = (df[df["indicator"] == "SDG_B821_NOC_RT"]
          .pivot_table(index="time", columns="ref_area", values="obs_value"))
print(matrix.tail())
