INTRODUCTION TO DATASETS AND DATA STRUCTURE DEFINITION

There are two available data sets for Job Vacancy Statistics reporting and these are listed in the section

Data Sets. To report this information, one data structure definition (DSD) is used called ‘JVS’.

DATA SETS

The table below lists the available data sets.

Data Set Identifier Description

JVS_02_A Annual vacancy data with regional and occupational breakdowns (NUTS2 and

ISCO-08)

JVS_02_Q Quarterly vacancy data broken down by economic activity (NACE Rev. 2)

CL_NUTS2_2013

The nomenclature to be used is the Nomenclature of territorial units for statistics NUTS 2013/EU28 (Commission

Regulation (EC) No 31/2011 of 17 January 2011 amending the Annexes to Regulation (EC) No 1059/2003 of the

European Parliament and of the Council on the establishment of a common classification of territorial units for statistics

(NUTS)). The code consists of two up to four digits depending on the level of breakdown used.

Please consult the nomenclature at:

http://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/ramon/nomenclatures/index.cfm?TargetUrl=LST_NOM_DTL&StrNom=NUTS_2013&StrLa

nguageCode=EN&IntPcKey=&StrLayoutCode=HIERARCHIC

The code _Z (Not applicable) is used in the CL_NUTS2_2013 code list.

Countries for which JVS data (in particular quarterly data) are not available by region are invited to transmit their

country code under this dimension. This code is the same as in CL_AREA (e.g. ‘BE’ for Belgium) with the exception of

Greece (EL) and the United Kingdom (UK).

APPENDIX 2 – MESSAGE IMPLEMENTATION GUIDELINES

INPUT FILE FORMAT

This section provides some guidance to design the input CSV format to be used for conversion to SDMX-ML with the SDMX Converter

Tool.

The header of the CSV file should look like this:

FREQ,REF_AREA,REGION,SEASONAL_ADJUST,INDICATOR,ACTIVITY,SIZECLASS,OCCUPATION,TIME_PERIOD,OBS_VALUE,OBS_STATUS,CONF_

STATUS,PRE_BREAK_VALUE,COMMENT_OBS,TITLE,UNIT,UNIT_MULT,DECIMALS,COMMENT_TS,DATA_COMP,COVERAGE,TIME_PER_COLLECT

,DISS_ORG,COMPILING_ORG,TIME_FORMAT

In the JVS_02_Q data set the OCCUPATION and the REGION are not used. In this case the default value for OCCUPATION will be the code "_T" (Total) and the

default value for REGION will be the country code.

OUTPUT FILE FORMAT

There are two options to generate the SDMX-ML files to be sent to Eurostat:

Generate SDMX-ML files directly from the production system.

This can be done by respecting the appropriate structure of the SDMX-ML file as specified by the DSD.

Generate SDMX-ML files from files in other formats (e.g. CSV).

The conversion from CSV to SDMX-ML can be done using Eurostat’s SDMX Converter.

In order to obtain SDMX-ML files, the conversion will be done from CSV format into COMPACT_SDMX format.

The first part of the data message contains the instructions on where to find the code list information for the data in the file. This is indeed one of the

main advantages with an XML-based message that all the information needed to decode the message is contained with the message itself.

The second part contains general information on the ID of the dataset, production date and the sender id of the institution providing the data. Finally

the third part contains the actual data. The above shown messages are heavily truncated compared to a real dataset, here we only show one time

series of unadjusted data for NACE section F for the level of occupied posts. An important difference to the SDMX-EDI (earlier known as

GESMES/TS) format is the fact that all items have a description with them, whereas is SDMX-EDI (or indeed in csv) the order of the items

indicates what it is.
