When will new figures be published?
This table is stopped. The update of 20 November 2014 was the last update of this table. Starting 2015 Statistics Netherlands uses the international definition for unemployment. This change is part of the strategy to be in accord with international definitions and with this to be able to make comparisons among countries and prevent confusion. The figures according to the national definition will be continued for now as was also done with the figures regarding registered unemployment at the time when Statistics Netherlands started using the national definition of unemployment. To prevent confusion because of too many definitions, the figures on registered unemployment will now be stopped. Only figures on the number of people registered at UWV Werkbedrijf will be available for now, see the link in paragraph 3.
