Dean Baker's recent report on the US employment situation mentions
an overall EPOP (employment-to-population ratio) of 58.2 percent.
How is that ratio defined in US statistics? Is it (1) employment
over entire population? (2) employment over adult population (15+)?
(3) employment over working age population (15-65)? (4) other?
Probably not (1) - for that definition i have the figure of 47.3
percent for 2003.
Can someone please clarify
Civilian noninstitutional population over the age of 16. That is, not
in the military, prison, or a mental institution. It's not capped at
65 because plenty of people over the age of 65 still work.
