From an International Labour Organization Announcement:
The International Labour Organization (ILO) has expanded its online database of labour market statistics to include information disaggregated by sector of the economy.

The new content is being introduced just a few months after the ILO Department of Statistics launched a renovated and expanded short-term indicators database aimed at providing analysts, policy-makers and the media with the latest labour statistics.
The database also contains labour market indicators for countries that release official information on a monthly or quarterly basis. Currently, it provides national profile for 75 countries and over 100 indicators disaggregated by gender. Users can obtain a printable page with the latest data or download Excel files. The ILO statistics tool also includes an interactive map containing most of the data organized by country and topic.
