Heimili og vinnumarkaður
8. Heimili og vinnumarkaður
8. Households and the labour market
Yfirlit
Frá árinu 1993 hefur Hagstofan í vinnumarkaðskönnunum
lagt fyrir spurningar um aðra heimilismenn, tengsl þeirra
við svaranda, aldur og kyn auk nokkurra spurninga um
atvinnuþátttöku. Með þessum spurningum er hægt að fá
vitneskju sem ekki er tiltæk annars staðar um samsetningu
heimila í landinu, atvinnuþátttöku og atvinnuleysi eftir
heimilisgerð.
Samkvæmt þessum gögnum var fjöldi heimila 99.400
árið 2002 og hafði fjölgað um 1.700 frá árinu 2001.
Atvinnuþátttaka var minnst á einstaklingsheimilum árið
2002, eða 75,2%, en mest á heimilum hjóna með böm, eða
88%. Ekki var marktækur munur á atvinnuleysi eftir
heimilisgerð árið 2002.
Synopsis
Since 1993, Statistics Iceland has presented questions in its
labour force survey about other members of the household,
their relationship to the respondent, age and sex, along with
several questions about activity rate. With the help of these
questions it is possible to obtain knowledge which is
available nowhere else about the composition of households,
labour market participation and unemployment by type of
household.
These data reveal that the number of households in 2002
was 99,400, an increase of approximately 1,700 from 2001.
In 2002 labour force participation was lowest in one-person
households and greatest in the households of couples with
children, 75.2% and 88% respectively. There was no
significant difference in unemployment according to type
of household that year.

Hugtök og aðferðir
Heimili er sá staður þar sem svarandi í vinnumarkaðs-
könnunum hefur fasta búsetu eða bækistöð og dvelst að
jafnaði í tómstundum sínum, hefur heimilismuni sína og
svefnstað þegar hann er ekki fjarverandi um stundarsakir
vegna orlofs, vinnuferða, veikinda eða annarra hliðstæðra
atvika.
Einkaheimili teljast öll heimili önnur en stofnanaheimili,
s.s. verbúðir eða vinnubúðir, gistiheimili, heimavistir,
fangelsi, vinnuhæli, sjúkrahús, sambýli eða klaustur.
Concepts and methodology
A household is the place where the respondent in a labour
force survey is permanently resident or based and generally
spends his or her free time, keeps his or her household
effects and sleeps when not temporarily absent on account
of vacation, travel in connection with work, illness or other
comparable events.
Private households are all households other than those at
institutions, e.g. construction camps or dormitories at fish
processing plants, guesthouses, boarding schools, prisons,
closed places of work, hospitals, communes or religious
communides.
