1/ The National Statistics Office (NSO) is availing the flexibility
option for this category.
2/ The periodicity of Employment and Unemployment data is
every quarter particularly every January, April, July and October.
Previous data refers to the previous round of the Labor Force Survey and is
not seasonally adjusted. The reference period is the "past week" referring to the seven days
preceding the date of visit of the enumerator. Starting April 2005,
the new unemployment definition was adopted per NSCB Resolution No. 15 dated
October 20, 2004, to wit: the unemployed include all persons who are 15 years
old and above as of their last birthday and are reported as (1) without work;
AND (2) currently available for work; AND (3) seeking work OR not seeking work
due to valid reasons.
3/ The data refers
to the average monthly wage rate across the selected occupations in the selected
non-agricultural industries and not average monthly wage rate across all occupations
in all non-agricultural industries. The Philippines is using the
"as relevant" flexibility for this data and will publish wage
rates statistics with a periodicity of two years and a timeliness of 12 months.
4/ The
following transactions are not included in revenue and expenditure: (i)
adjustments of net lending and equity to government-owned and
-controlled corporations; and (ii) timing adjustment of interest
payments to BSP. The report on OPSF was no longer disseminated starting
2002 because the fund was dissolved in view of the Oil Deregulation Law passed
in 1998.
5/
January - November 2005. The data include only the financing of the national
government, and the 14 monitored non-financial government corporations (MNGGCs).
6/
Breakdown of domestic financing was revised due to the change in the basis
used for the calculation
7/ The Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE) is the primary source of data while
the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) compiles the data. Daily updates
are available at the BSP website.
8/ Please
refer to the Technical
Notes on the major revisions of the 2001 IIP and to the Comparative
Preliminary and revised Data for 2001 IIP
9/ Daily updates and other convertible currencies with the BSP are available
at the BSP website.
10/ Population Projection by Single-Year Interval (Medium Assumption). Previous data is for 2006.
a/
Previous data (June 2004) and latest data (August 2006) not comparable as the
former covers employment size of 50 and over while the latter covers 20 and
over.
b/ Revised to reflect the actual annual data.
c/ Preliminary, Compiled on 11 February 2008
d/ Preliminary, Revised on 22 January 2008
e/ Revised based on the final International Reserve report for end October 2007
