förvärvsfrekvens

English translation: labour force participation rate

Swedish term or phrase: förvärvsfrekvens
Detta kommer från en text i nationalekonomi och jag undrar vad som skulle vara den engelska motsvarigheten till det som NE beskriver som:

"Förvärvsfrekvens, relativt arbetskraftstal , den andel av befolkningen som har eller söker ett förvärvsarbete."

  -> Thanks Sven - and nice to see you're around!
disagree  Christopher Schröder: For the record, this is wrong. The answer is employment rate. NE has the wrong definition. I didn't mention this at the time because the term is for a test translation for a ProZ job offer which I also did. I didn't get the job either.
