Isabelle Rémond-Tiedrez, Juan Manuel Valderas-Jaramillo, Antonio F. Amores, José Manuel Rueda-Cantuche

The Eurostat-JRC project "Full International and Global Accounts for Research in Input-Output Analysis" (FIGARO) has produced experimental EU inter-country supply, use and input-output tables for the year 2010 in line with ESA 2010 methodology (3). This paper uses FIGARO tables to analyse the employment content of EU Member States exports. This application relies on standard Leontief modelling and combines EU inter-country input-output data and EU employment data.The results show that 11.3 % of EU employment in 2010 was supported by EU exports to the rest of the world, which corresponded to 25.6 million jobs. This share varies from 25 % in Luxembourg to around 7 % in Greece, Portugal and Spain.
