Data Analysis 25/26
1. INTRODUCTION
This report analyses data from the Survey of Living Conditions by the Instituto Nacional de
Estadística (INE). The objective is to study the distribution of two variables in Sample 13
and compare them with the distribution in the full dataset:
- SITLAB: Labour market position of the main holder of the household.
- TIPO: Type of dwelling.
The analysis includes frequency tables (absolute and relative frequencies) and graphical
representations for both the sample and the entire population (named Group).
2. VARIABLE: LABOUR MARKET POSITION (SITLAB)
The variable SITLAB classifies the employment status of the main household holder into six
categories:
1. Salaried worked
2. Self-employed
3. Unemployed
4. Retired
5. House-keeper
6. Other

The total number of observations in Sample 13 is 138 individuals. The largest group Salaried
worked with 53%, being the dominant category, representing almost half of the
observations. The smallest group is self-employed and housekeepers with 3%.
COMPARISON SAMPLE vs GROUP SITLAB
There is no such a big difference between the group and the sample, except that there’s 1%
less unemployed people in the group.
Overall, Sample 13 appears to be representative of the full population with respect to labour
market position.
