How to read this table
Rows where each country is presented as a separate data series for the entire period facilitate comparison. Absolute values of the number of employed persons in Russia can be compared with data from other countries to observe differences in the scale of national labor markets. Since all values are on a single scale in millions of people, no recalculations are required, making it easy to compare the situation in Russia, Austria, or Belarus for any selected year within the given time interval
What is visible in these numbers
Five highest values: Russia (74.2), Germany (43.3), Italy (23.9), Spain (21.7), Poland (17.3). Gap between highest and lowest — by 247.3 times. The top five account for 71.9% of the total across all positions — distribution is heavily skewed toward the top
Observations are annual, the dataset contains 8 periods. Of 200 possible values, 200 (100%) are filled — almost no empty cells remain
