International Labor Comparisons (ILC)
The International Labor Comparisons (ILC) program provides international comparisons of hourly compensation costs; productivity and unit labor costs; labor force, employment and consumer prices. The comparisons relate primarily to the major industrial countries, but other countries are included in certain measures. The ILC program adjusts data to a common conceptual framework because direct comparisons of national statistics across countries can be misleading due to differing concepts and methods. ILC data are used to assess U.S. economic and labor market performance relative to that of other countries and to evaluate the competitive position of the United States in increasingly global markets.
The ILC program was eliminated in 2013 under sequestration. For more information and data visit: https://www.bls.gov/ilc/
