Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics (PCBS), Labour Force Participation and Employment in the State of Palestine, 2020

Upon request of the Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics (PCBS), this report analyses the Palestinian labor market. Guided by the information available to us in two census data files, we do this from a labor supply-side perspective. More specifically, we study Palestinian labor force participation and (un)employment and their spatial, demographic and socioeconomic correlates, and changes therein between 2007 and 2017, based on the official 2007 and 2017 census data files.
