Description topics

Full-time equivalent (fte)
Labour input in full-time equivalents is calculated by expressing all jobs (be it full-time, part-time or flexible) to full-time equivalents. The full-time equivalent is obtained by dividing the annual contractual hours of the job by the annual contractual hours considered full-time (in the same company). Two half-time jobs add up to one full-time equivalent.
Full-time equivalent (fte) total
Full-time equivalent (fte) employee
The amount of paid labour carried out by employees in a certain period. Employees are persons who, by agreement, work for a resident institutional unit and receive a remuneration (in cash or in kind) recorded as compensation of employees.

Full-time equivalent (fte) self-employed
The amount of paid labour carried out by self-employed persons in a certain period. Self-employed persons are defined as persons who are the sole owners, or joint owners, of the unincorporated enterprises in which they work, including unpaid family workers. The latter are not counted as self-employed when there is an employment contract.
