Actualizado · labour force (people)
Por qué estos 20
World Bank indicator SL.TLF.TOTL.IN (ILO modelled estimates): people aged 15 and older who supplied work for pay or profit, or were looking for it, during the year. It includes the unemployed and leaves out unpaid home work, so countries where many women work outside the formal count rank lower than their population suggests.
