Source: Statistics Faroe Islands. The counting of employees is based on the Faroes Custom and tax Authorities records
of current taxes, Faroese companies and on the national registration of the Ministry of the Interior. The figures include
Faroese citizens aged 16 to 74 years who are receiving wages over the pay-as-you-earn tax system. Included are only
those who have at least a monthly wage income equivalent of a days pay of a unskilled worker. Likewise, those are
included who are on leave because of childbirth or illness.
Because the payment of sailors in particular tends to vary, we count people as employees even if they receive no salary
for one or two months if they receive a salary again the following month.
Each month a number of workers receive salary from several different employers. To prevent double counting we group
the workers by industry according to where the biggest payment originated each respective month.
These rules have been applied by us in such a way as to comply with the rules of ILO in the best possible way and
therefore to be comparable with other countries.
