Calculation of working hours in Psilca

Question

Hi! I am trying to create a new process in PSILCA and I am finding hard to calculate the working hours. I know that the equation is

worker hours=unit labour cost/mean hourly labour cost

But to calculate in a new process the working hours should I use the data from Eora and ILOSTAT(to find the unit labour cost and the hourly labour cost)?

Thank you :)

Answer 1

Ideally, you use data from your own process, i.e. from the process you are modeling, as a backup, you can use those from the database (PSILCA) for the same sector and country.

just out of clarity, this all means that we cannot find the (calculated) worker hours values in the PSILCA database, nor are they computed in results? I cannot find them back, only converted ones in risk hours. Yet, I wondered whether I just couldn't find them or they are not there.
