Information & Monitoring
All Observatory data were updated on 28 July 2022, to include annual, macro and quarterly employment data from the EU Candidate Countries’ & Potential Candidates’ Economic Quarterly (CCEQ) 2nd Quarter 2022 Technical Paper and LFSs, and monthly data from Western Balkans’ Public Employment Services (PES). Some WB economies had revisions of their earlier LFS methodology/data reporting, thus there were changes in prior Observatory data which are reflected in the latest updates.
