Measuring Employment in the Tourism Industries - Guide with Best Practices.

Closer collaboration and liaison between the two organisations, ILO and UNWTO,  is expected to improve the present situation, where currently the lack of reliable statistics on quantitative and qualitative aspects of employment in the tourism industries causes a major problem in providing the National Tourism Administrations, the Ministries of Labour and the Ministries of Finance with relevant statistical indicators to monitor and analyse developments in the tourism-related labour market, as well as measure various dimensions and deficits of decent work in the tourism sector.. The Guide is considered to be one of the technical outputs produced under the joint ILO/UNWTO Agreement which completes a series of international references and methodological tools produced within the framework of the joint ILO/UNWTO Agreement.
