According to the full ENEIC publication for Q4 2024, the leading occupational groups are services and sales (23.6% of the employed), elementary occupations (23.5%) and craft and related trades workers (19.8%); military occupations account for 0.1%. The wage-earning population splits 63.2% urban and 36.9% rural, and 62.8% men against 37.2% women. The dossier proposes an eneic_asalariados_persons indicator on a quarterly frequency drawn from INE's bulletins.

The research is written in English; quoted figures, source names and the titles of legal instruments stay in the language their source published them in.

This layer is research: read from public sources by the archive's own team, every claim cited with the date it was consulted, and audited where it is marked so. It has not entered the verified store — no figure here was fetched back from its source or stamped with a retrieval time — so it wears no red provenance numeral and never mixes with the verified figures.
