What do the held LFS rounds say about the Dhaka division?

Labour force by division. Part of what the twin can answer. Every figure below is the value the route serves, with its source; the raw response is at /api/twin/brain/labour/division/dhaka.

Descriptive, sourced: no model

Basis: sourced records (URL, sha256 or locator per row), no model.

Printed values verbatim with table id and printed page; microdata estimates with the survey weights, anchored to the prints; rates and shares computed in code from stored values.

Before 2022 the Dhaka division included today's Mymensingh, so this division's pre-2022 figures are not comparable to the 2022 ones.

Dhaka: labour force participation, 2022 (computed): 61.45%; Computed from LFS 2013, QLFS 2016-17 and QLFS 2022 (2025 reissue) microdata, stored parquets, survey weights applied
Dhaka: unemployment, 2022 (computed): 3.48%; Computed from LFS 2013, QLFS 2016-17 and QLFS 2022 (2025 reissue) microdata, stored parquets, survey weights applied
Dhaka: youth unemployment, 2022 (computed): 7.51%; Computed from LFS 2013, QLFS 2016-17 and QLFS 2022 (2025 reissue) microdata, stored parquets, survey weights applied

Not held

District figures: The LFS is division-level; no district breakdown exists in the held rounds, printed or microdata.
NEET by division, 2022: The 2022 report prints NEET nationally only (table 9.6.1); a reproduction from the stored 2022 reissue microdata did not match the printed national figure, so no division NEET is served for 2022. Division NEET is served for 2015-16 as printed (table S107).
Quarterly LFS 2023 and 2024: The stored report PDFs for the 2023 and 2024 quarterly rounds (labour_force_survey_2023.pdf, labour_force_survey_2024.pdf) carry no extractable text in the store; no figures are served from them.
Informal employment before 2022: The older held reports do not print informal-employment tables by division; informal figures are 2022 only (tables 7.3.1, 7.3.2).
Rounds before 2013: No earlier LFS round is held in the store.
National labour aggregates and urban labour: National labour force series belong to the people brain and urban labour to the urban brain; this route links to them instead of repeating them.
