Notes: The transition rates are in natural logarithms. P* denotes permanent employment (including self-employment), T is temporary employment, U is unemployment and O
is out-of-the labour force. A transition rate, from U to T, say, is denoted UTR. Seasonal dummies are always included. The estimation method is seemingly unrelated
regression. Estimation period: 1987.3-2000.2. A dummy for the first quarter of 1993 is included whenever found significant to capture changes in measurement methods.
