B. Reading : Job Vacancy

Job Vacancy for a quarter refers to the number of unfilled posts at the end of the quarter for

which an establishment is actively recruiting employees from outside the establishment. They

exclude:

 Positions for which the employees have been appointed but not yet commenced duty; or
 Positions open only to internal transfers or promotions.

Job Vacancy Rate for a quarter is defined as the total number of job vacancies divided by the
total demand for manpower at the end of the quarter. The job vacancies for the whole economy is
estimated based on the assumption that private sector establishments with less than 25 employees
have the same vacancy rate as private establishments with 25-49 employees. Estimates on the
total number of unemployed persons are obtained from the Labour Force Survey.
