The exact information requested by the Deputy is not available. The Labour Force Survey (LFS) is the official source of employment estimates in the State. The most recent figures available are for Q3 2021.
The quarterly LFS employment estimates are produced by NUTS3 Regions (NUTS3 is a geocode standard referencing the eight subdivisions of Ireland for statistical purposes). Due to the methodology and sample size of the survey it is not possible to produce reliable county estimates from the LFS.
The Mid-East NUTS3 Region is composed of Counties Kildare, Louth, Meath and Wicklow.
The LFS sectoral employment figures are based on the EU NACE Rev. 2 classification.
Table 1 below shows the number of persons aged 15 - 89 years in employment (ILO) in the NACE Rev.2 Economic Sector C (Manufacturing), Q3 2018 - 2021 and the three year change.
Table 2 shows the number of persons aged 15 - 89 years in employment (ILO) in the NACE Rev.2 Economic Sectors G-U (Total Services), Q3 2018 - 2021 and the three year change.
