The employment to population ratio 8★ is the proportion of employed persons in the working age group (usually 15 to 64). --Nicolas Brouard 12:09, 5 August 2013 (CEST)

Inactive persons 9★ are those who do not accomplish any kind of professional activity neither are looking for any employment.

--Nicolas Brouard 12:09, 5 August 2013 (CEST)

Hidden unemployment 10★ or labor reserve 10★ includes people who, although not officially registered as unemployed, are looking for a private work as well as those who do not exercise nor are looking for a job but if some job opportunities arose to them, could respond. --Nicolas Brouard 12:53, 5 August 2013 (CEST)
It has been renamed to 11 by Elena Ambrosetti because 8 was used by the German. --Nicolas Brouard 12:38, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
It is important to distinguish between persons who have never had a job and persons who are looking for their first job 11★ or first-time job seekers 11★.--Nicolas Brouard 12:29, 5 August 2013 (CEST)
A classical distinction hard to translate into English. Please check:
Suivant leur qualification professionnelle 4, les ouvriers peuvent être répartis en professionnels 5, ou ouvriers qualifiés 5, en ouvriers semi-qualifiés 6, ou ouvriers spécialisés 6, et en manœuvres 7.
Manual workers may be further sub-divided according to their skill 4, with skilled workers 5, semi-skilled workers 6, and unskilled workers 7 being distinguished.
