This document corrects 6 errors in Unemployment in administrative data using survey data as a benchmark. The errors consist of 5 superficial typographical errors and a missing footnote. These are as follows:

  1. (1)

    In Section 3, “The unemployment gap”, line 3 of 7th paragraph, “4 years” should read “6 years” instead.

  2. (2)

    In Section 4.2, “STU expansion”, line 2 of 3rd bulleted list, “4 years” should read “6 years” instead.

  3. (3)

    In the first reference of “References” section, the author names should be “Arranz JM and Serrano CG (2011)”

  4. (4)

    In the 14th reference of “References” section, the author names should be “Arranz JM and Serrano CG (2014)”

  5. (5)

    There should be a footnote to Table 5 stating “Please note that the columns do not add to the total, since these numbers refer to the destination of completed unemployment spells, while “Total” refers to all spells, completed and uncompleted.”

  6. (6)

    In Section 5.4, “Alternative LFS measures”, line 3, the old acronym of Instituto Nacional de Empleo, INEM, is incorrectly used as it should refer to the Servicio Público de Empleo Estatal, SEPE.
