The Employment Statistics (ETS) headcount of employed persons on the domestic concept (Inlandkonzept), quarterly averages back to 1991, cut by economic sector and sex. Where BESTA tracks jobs by fine NOGA division, ETS tracks persons and exposes the full sector tree on one axis: total P, the three economic sectors (P_1 agriculture, P_2 industry & construction, P_3 services), and 18 NOGA-2008 sections beneath them. Crossing 23 sector codes with three sexes (total / men / women) gives 69 series on a single headcount scale, so the male/female split of any sector reads straight off the chart.
