Dear TAN,

Please be informed that the statistical information on the working
population by Large Subunit Groups (LSUGs) in the excel file
“LSUG_21.xlsx” available under the item “2021 Population Census Statistics
(By Large Subunit Group)” on the Common Spatial Data Infrastructure is
referring to the working population residing in corresponding LSUGs
according to the results of the 2021 Population Census (21C).

Regarding your request for the number of employees by LSUGs, please refer
to the attached statistical table “Table_IDDS.xlsx”, which are generated
from the Interactive Data Dissemination Service (IDDS) on the 21C Website
(Link : [1]https://idds.census2021.gov.hk/app/idds....) based on the
results of the 21C.  It should be noted that the statistics in Table 1 are
also referring to the working population residing in corresponding LSUGs.

Dear Census and Statistics Department,

I see the data on the 'working population' from the 2021 Population Census
by Large Subunit Groups (LSUGs). See
[3]https://portal.csdi.gov.hk/geoportal/#me.... The working
population data is also breakdown into occupations

I am not sure whether it stands for the working population living in the
corresponding LSUG or working there.

If it means the working population living there, is there any data that
could represent the number of employees (or employment/job opportunities)
by Large Subunit Groups (LSUGs)?

Yours faithfully,
Xinying TAN
