Tools

ilostat_compare_geographies ~1036 tokens
Compare reference areas on one ILOSTAT dataset and one slice — a sex code plus breakdown codes, defaulting to the dataset's totals — giving each area's value at a common period or at its latest non-projected period, optional change over N years, and a rank, with each value's period, source, status,
ilostat_dataframe_describe ~349 tokens
Describe the df_<id> dataframes staged by ilostat_query_indicator and ilostat_compare_geographies or stored by ilostat_dataframe_query register_as: the tool and parameters that produced each, the datasets it holds (label, last update, and the unit with its measure, type, and multiplier — values stay
ilostat_dataframe_query ~656 tokens
Run a single-statement SELECT against the df_<id> dataframes staged by ilostat_query_indicator and ilostat_compare_geographies or stored by an earlier register_as. Inspect a dataframe with ilostat_dataframe_describe first; its column schema is what the SQL has to match. Read-only: writes, DDL, DROP,
ilostat_describe_indicator ~323 tokens
Explain one ILOSTAT dataset before comparing numbers: its definition, unit and multiplier, frequency variants and coverage, the sex and breakdown codes in use across its frequencies (the total code of each breakdown marked), the reference areas it covers, whether it carries World/regional/income-gro
ilostat_get_country_profile ~415 tokens
Build a headline labour-market profile for one reference area: labour force participation, employment-to-population ratio, unemployment and youth unemployment rates, youth NEET rate, informal employment rate, employment level, labour income share, and working poverty rate. Each indicator shows its l
ilostat_list_reference ~727 tokens
Decode ILOSTAT's code vocabulary: reference areas (ISO3 countries and X-coded aggregates, with World Bank income group and ILO region), the groups that area_group accepts (X01 for every country, ILO regions and subregions, World Bank income groups; exact-code lookups list their member countries), da
ilostat_query_indicator ~1398 tokens
Fetch observations for up to 3 ILOSTAT datasets per call, filtered by reference area or area group, sex, breakdown codes (classif1, classif2), source, and period; datasets past the first 3 come back as remaining_dataset_ids for another call. Rows keep their source, observation status, decoded notes,
ilostat_search_indicators ~913 tokens
Search ILOSTAT's catalog of labour-statistics indicators by plain-language terms and filters. Each hit is one indicator with its datasets — one per available frequency (annual, quarterly, monthly) — plus breakdowns, coverage years, number of reference areas, source database, and last update; pass a
