Figure 3: CVs of LFS Indicators (Levels)
Table 4 shows the total number of provinces/HUCs by major LFS indicators
(rates) and CVs. Unemployment rate had the least number of provinces/HUCs (46 out
of 114) with reliable estimates. Figure 4 shows the boxplots of coefficient of variations
of the estimates of major LFS indicators (rates) for all provinces nationwide. The CVs
of all estimates range from 0.11% to 29.57%. The CVs of employment rate (0.11% to
1.87%) and labor force participation rate estimates (0.89% to 2.30%) in all
provinces/HUCs were reliable.
