Description

Definition
Gallup classifies respondents into one of six categories of employment based on a respondent's combination of answers to a series of questions about employment. Respondents worldwide are asked an identical series of questions and classification calculations for each respondent and country-level aggregates are also standardized.

EMPLOYED FULL TIME FOR AN EMPLOYER
A respondent is considered employed full time for an employer if he or she is employed by an employer and if he or she works for this employer for at least 30 hours per week.

EMPLOYED FULL TIME FOR SELF
Respondents are considered employed full time for themselves if they are self-employed and if they work for at least 30 hours per week.

EMPLOYED PART TIME, DO NOT WANT TO WORK FULL TIME
Respondents who work either for an employer or themselves and do not work more than 30 hours per week at either job are categorized as employed part time. Additionally, when asked, these respondents indicated that they do not want to work more than 30 hours per week.

EMPLOYED PART TIME, WANT TO WORK FULL TIME
Respondents who work either for an employer or themselves and do not work more than 30 hours per week at either job are categorized as employed part time. Additionally, when asked, these respondents indicated that they do want to work more than 30 hours per week.

UNEMPLOYED
A respondent is unemployed if he/she reports not being employed in the last seven days, either for an employer or for himself or herself. The respondent must also report actively looking for a job in the past four weeks AND being able to begin work in the last four weeks.

OUT OF THE WORKFORCE
Respondents who are out of the workforce were not employed within the last seven days, either for an employer or for themselves, are not looking for work, AND/OR are not available to start work. Respondents may be full-time students, retired, disabled, or homemakers; however, some respondents will not fall into any of these scenarios.
