Articles 7 and 8 of the Convention. Employment, unemployment and underemployment statistics. Statistics of the structure and distribution of the economically active population. The Committee notes that the Government continues to supply statistics on the economically active population, employment and unemployment to the ILO Department of Statistics for dissemination through its website (ILOSTAT) and that the latest Labour Force Survey (LFS) figures relate to 2014. The Committee also notes that Statistics Norway carried out a population census in 2011. Information on the census and the census results is available through Eurostat and Statistics Norway. The Committee requests that the Government continue to supply data and information on the methodology used in the application of these provisions as well as on any plans for conducting the next round of the population census. It also invites the Government to provide information on any developments in relation to the implementation of the Resolution concerning statistics of work, employment and labour underutilization (Resolution I), adopted by the 19th International Conference of Labour Statisticians (October 2013).
Articles 9, 10 and 11. Current statistics of average earnings and hours of work. Statistics of wage structure and distribution. Statistics of labour cost. The Committee notes that the following statistics were provided to the ILO Department of Statistics: average weekly hours actually worked, by economic activity and by sex, derived from the LFS; and average monthly earnings of employees, by branch of economic activity and by sex, derived from the Establishment Survey. For both series, the most recent figures refer to 2014. With respect to statistics of wage structure and distribution, the Committee notes that these statistics are compiled following the guidelines of the European Union concerning the Structure of Earnings Survey. Moreover, the Committee notes that information available on the Statistics Norway website indicate that the latest available statistics on annual average labour costs per full-time-equivalent employee by industry, derived from the Labour Cost Survey conducted once every four years, refer to 2012. The Committee requests that the Government continue to supply up-to-date statistics on the application of these provisions.
Article 14. Statistics of occupational injuries. The Government indicates in its report that Statistics Norway has started to compile national statistics for occupational injuries based on reports to the Norwegian Labour and Welfare Administration (NAV). It adds that Statistics Norway will report data for 2014 to Eurostat in 2016. The Government further indicates that the statistics are based on reports (claim forms) submitted to the NAV. A distinction is made between occupational injuries that lead to short absence from work (three days or less) and injuries that lead to long absences from work (over three days and permanent absence, for example, in the case of fatal injuries). The Committee further notes that submitting a claim to the NAV is only relevant if the injured person is covered by the National Insurance Scheme (NIS). Self-employed persons can voluntarily join the NIS but a relatively large share chooses not to do so. The Government indicates that national statistics will be released together with a methodological description about the statistics. The Committee requests the Government to continue to supply statistics on occupational injuries and new source compilations, when they become available. Please also provide information on any developments with regard to the production of occupational injuries statistics.
