The Employment Impact of Differences in Dmand and Production

Appendix 1:   The Data

Input Output Tables

The input-output tables used have been obtained from the OECD. These are constructed from
national sources, harmonised by OECD. They are designed as far as possible to be on an industry x
industry basis at basic prices. Tables for 1970-90 are on ISIC rev.2; those for 1995-98 are on ISIC
rev. 3. The Spanish domestic tables prior 1995 have been obtained from the Spanish Bureau of
Statistics.

We have used the domestic tables at current prices.

Detailed documentation for the tables is available at www.oecd.org.
